Policy & Advocacy
Issues that are important to you are also important to us. Tell us what you think about issues relating to senior Australians and we’ll give you a voice – one that’s loud and clear!
What we do
The National Policy Office has an important role to play in the implementation of National Seniors' national policy agenda and policy process.
We advocate on your behalf. We get your point-of-view heard by government of all levels, business and the broader community.
We work closely with our national, state and territory policy groups and our extensive network of state offices, branches and zone committees to determine issues of importance to senior Australians and to identify trends in ageing.
A stone's throw from Parliament House, National Policy Office facilitates a close working relationship between National Seniors’ membership and government, opposition, and other political parties.
We also play a central role in building relationships with a range of government departments, peak bodies and national associations in order to further develop practical solutions to address the needs of seniors and an ageing population.
The National Policy Office plays a key role in informing the development of the research program for the National Seniors Productive Ageing Centre.
Our work is assisted by the Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing, through the Community Sector Support Scheme.
What you can do
Take action and have your say about issues that are important to you. Make yourself heard and make a difference.
