In this webinar, we present an overview of evidence of what works in physical activity for older adults, as well as examples of scalable physical activity programs from around the world. Featuring colleagues from around the globe, this webinar is presented collaboratively by the University of Sydney, World Health Organization Physical Activity Unit and International Society for Physical Activity and Health in celebration of UN International Day of Older Persons.
Watch this special event held in honour of friend and colleague Associate Professor Helen O’Connor. We are pleased to have her colleagues and fellow researchers share their knowledge around a theme close to her heart – women’s research in sports, dietetics, and physical activity.
