We are delighted to invite you to the 2026 New Zealand Association of Gerontology Conference.

  • NZAG 2026 | Honouring the Journey of Ageing
  • 2–4 December 2026
  • Rehua Building, University of Canterbury, Ōtautahi Christchurch

We are grateful to the University of Canterbury for generously hosting NZAG 2026.

This year we gather in Ōtautahi to honour the journeys of older people across Aotearoa New Zealand — their contributions, their wisdom, their experiences, and their place at the heart of our communities and our work.

NZAG 2026 will bring together researchers, practitioners, policy makers, educators, students, community workers, advocates, and older people themselves for three days of rich conversation, connection, and collaboration.

Save the date and spread the word!

We can't wait to welcome you to Ōtautahi.

Thank you to our Platinum Sponsor
