Ageing Well

Following a decade of mission-led, collaborative, and community-based research, the time has come for us to say haere rā to Ageing Well National Science Challenge.

We have been proud to help all New Zealanders age well and wish to say a heartfelt thank you to all who have joined us on this journey. Ngā mihi maioha.
