Grant Activity:
A Framework for Healthy Ageing in the Torres Strait
Purpose:
WHO’s focus on healthy ageing may need some adaptation to be applicable in the Torres Strait. Mainstream tools used to measure aspects of health such as diet and physical exercise are not necessarily effective for this distinct cultural group. Our project aims to investigate what it means to age well for this population and to develop and test tools that can measure aspects of healthy ageing. The final model can be used to develop lifespan interventions to maintain health in later life.
