Work, Families and Wellbeing Forum - May 2006
The 2nd Work, Families and Wellbeing Forum was held at The Australian National
University on 4 and 5 May 2006. It was an initiative of the National Centre for
Epidemiology and Population Health (NCEPH) and Families Australia. The principal
aims were to showcase latest Australian research and, by involving representatives from
business, government, academia, unions and the community sector, generate a wellbalanced
discussion to encourage greater public debate and uptake of practical ideas to
enhance the balance between work and family life.
