Conference

This conference, jointly hosted by the Australian National University and the Australian War Memorial, and supported by the Department of Veterans' Affairs, will gather renowned historians, veterans and family members to explore an aspect of the Australian military experience that is rarely examined - captivity.

Speakers will present new research and insights into the experiences of more than 34,000 Australians who were prisoners of war during the First World War, the Second World War and the Korean War.

Population ageing is a global phenomenon. While individual nations are at different stages in demographic transition, the trend for almost all is clear. The economic and social impact of demographic change is generating increasing research and policy attention. This conference will bring together leading academics, senior policymakers and practitioners to share new research and industry and policy perspectives on the dynamics of the ageing demographic. Fiscal, labour force, family, health, and financial questions will be discussed.
