The mission of SWEAH is to sharpen the skills of SWEAH's doctoral students and develop efficient and creative cooperation among Swedish higher institutions and relevant national and international partners. 

Target group

The conference is aimed at SWEAH PhD students, alumni and supervisors and those engaged in research on ageing and health at SWEAH’s partner universities, not limited to researchers affiliated with SWEAH. Also representatives from possible new partners are welcome.

Parts of the program will be open to local stakeholders such as politicians, municipality representatives, senior citizens’ associations and others interested in research on ageing and health. 

If you work, for example, within the Swedish Local Authorities and Regions, SKR, the Swedish Public Health Agency, the National Board of Health and Welfare, or at the Ministry of Education or the Ministry of Health, this is really the conference for you.
