McDormand’s powerful performance as the widowed Fern shines a light on homelessness and the working poor. But how accurately does it convey the experience of older women who lack housing security?
This is a poetic tale of a year of slow learning through slow travel …
Congratulations to Bradley Schurman for his pragmatic, thought provoking overview of ‘The super Age’ – this time in history when there are more older citizens than ever – but only one in seven companies is actively responding to this growing consumer force.
Did you hear the tale of the photographer, the gynaecologist and the art curator?

Abul Rizvi is a retired academic living in Australia’s national capital, Canberra. He’s an expert in population ageing. But more than this, he is a hands-on practitioner, having actively managed Australia’s migration program between 1995-2007.

Happily for the rest of us, he has distilled his nearly 30 years of experience and research into an 80-page volume, Population Shock.
