This is a share from our colleagues at Elder Abuse Action Australia.
Stand Up, Speak Out
Because silence is never the solution
The 2026 Australian Elder Abuse Conference will be held on the Gold Coast, the land of the Yugambeh/Kombumerri peoples, at the RACV Royal Pines Resort 27-29 July 2026.
The Conference is a national gathering of people who care deeply about creating a safer, more just future for older Australians. It’s a space where bold conversations are welcomed, living experiences are honoured and collaborative solutions are forged.
This conference provides the platform for many voices to be heard. Together, we’ll challenge harmful norms, explore new ideas, and push for real, lasting change.
Over three dynamic days, delegates will connect across sectors, share knowledge and confront the complex realities of abuse and ageism. From powerful stories to innovative responses, our agenda is shaped by those at the forefront doing the work, and those with lived and living experience.
This is a call to action. To listen. To stand up. To speak out.
Not just for today, but for the generations to come.
