Aims

We aim to discover:

• the health status and needs of older people
• the social and economic status and needs of older people
• the health and social status and needs of families and carers of older people
• the biological and environmental components of 'successful ageing'
• the contributions that older people are making to society and economy
• how each of these key components (health, wealth, happiness) interact such that we can ensure that Ireland meets the needs and choices of its citizens in a personalized and positive environment and with due dignity and respect
