| Annotation | The NDA Handbook presents key messages from the New Dynamics of Ageing Programme (NDA) which began in 2005, and followed the earlier Growing Older Programme (1999 and 2004). The NDA Programme was multi-disciplinary in scope, and involved major cross-Council research proposals from: Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC); Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC); Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC); Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC); and Medical Research Council (MRC). The Programme was designed 'to provide a sound evidence base for policy and practice, so that research contributes to policy and practice.' This was an objective both for the Programme as a whole and also for the 35 individual research projects. This handbook has been prepared in close discussions with the Older People's Reference Group attached to the Programme. It is intended as a guide to the research outcomes for a lay audience, particularly for older people and their organisations. It aims to put the new evidence and new insights generated through the research into the hands of older people themselves, so that they can make use of this information to spread new knowledge, to campaign, and to influence policy and practice.
