Wrest Point Conference Centre

Hobart, Tasmania

REGISTER TO ATTEND

Walk the Talk is a conference that invites dialogue, debate and conversation about ending the abuse of older people wherever it occurs – in aged care residential settings, at home or in the systems and processes that surround us. The issues, ideas and challenges raised during Walk the Talk will encourage all delegates to continue their work, to drive change and to be voices for action.

Featured Speakers

Walk the Talk is pleased to announce our first two keynote speakers, Nicki Hutley and Natasha Short.

Natasha Short

Natasha was born and raised in the East Kimberley as a descendant of the Jaru people, and now lives on Miriwoong Gajerrong country in Kununurra. She has been passionate about positive social changes and righting injustices and founded the Kimberly Birds on the basis of creating social change. 

Nicki Hutley

Nicki is a highly experienced economist, with broad-based expertise in both macroeconomics and microeconomic policy. She is an economic advisor with Social Outcomes, developing and evaluating social impact programs. Nicki will be speaking to the economic cost of elder abuse.
