Since its establishment in 2007, the Centre for Ageing Research and Development in Ireland (CARDI) has been committed to building a strong and lasting community of researchers in ageing in Ireland, North and South.
Why Ageing research matters
An ageing population brings implications for policy, service delivery and long-term planning in diverse areas such as transport, health, housing, education and employment. Research can play a vital role in helping to inform better policy-making and planning for this ageing population which will help improve the lives of older people across the island of Ireland.
