Welcome to the
Centre for Ageing and Pastoral Studies (CAPS)
CAPS
is a centre where scholarship in ageing and pastoral studies can
be pursued. The process of ageing is examined within the context
of meaning in life and wellbeing for ageing. Quality of life issues for
older people, including living with dementia, are subjects
for research and education.
An integral part of the Centre's work, based on its research,
is to speak on ethical and policy issues relating to ageing.
