AGEING AUSTRALIA: ENTREPRENEURIAL INITIATIVES WORKSHOP

How do commercial and social entrepreneurs see the ageing of Australia? What new initiatives are emerging around work and job creation for mature workers, retirement incomes and security, living arrangements and accommodation, living options for people with high support needs, and interaction across the generations?

This workshop will be held on 21 July at Chifley Square in Sydney. It will have a practical orientation towards identifying entrepreneurial initiatives and projects, exploring issues such as individual savings accounts, matched savings accounts, asset-based welfare, regional savings and investment instruments, retirement income instruments, multi-stakeholder business ownership models, job and business creation for mature workers, funding and investment options in aged care, mutual models of aged care and support, superannuation reform and many more.

Workshop outline and registration are available at the Social Enterprise Partnerships website.
