This book provides a comprehensive view of the quality of life of older people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds living in Australia.

The book is unique and significant because the descriptions and arguments presented are based on the lived experience and hence provide deep insights into the complexity and dynamics of CALD older migrants. Key areas of exploration include social connectedness and inclusion, post-retirement economic activities, living arrangement and housing choice, practice of care, intergenerational exchange, and life satisfaction. A focus is placed on the diversity of ageing experience. Pathways of ageing are one of the key factors in investigating inter and intra-ethnic commonalities and disparities. The policy and research implications presented will appeal to policy makers, practitioners and researchers.


Hoon Han is an Associate Professor and the Director of City Planning Program at the Faculty of Built Environment at University of New South Wales, Australia.

Yong Moon Jung is a Research Fellow at the Centre for Business and Social Innovation, University of Technology Sydney, Australia.

Xueying Xiong is a PhD candidate and research assistant at the Faculty of Built Environment at University of New South Wales, Australia.
