title: Serendipity, shot-gun, strategic: Does it make a difference?

authors: Glover, Marewa

subjects: Maori

abstract: Kaupapa Māori research methodology
demands practical outcomes of tangible
benefit to Māori. This paper reflects on the
steps taken to ensure benefit resulted from
my PhD research on the
cessation of Māori smoking behaviour, and I ask where is that
benefit now?
Ensuring benefit starts before the
project begins when the idea is conceived.
Thus, I first reflect back to the birth of the
idea. Then the consultation undertaken,
and the conduct of the research, is reviewed
with a utilisation focus. The personal costs
undertaking research are then considered
the sections looking at contribution and
career. Finally, the question from the title
this paper is posed. Examples of the
barriers to strategic action, such as,
competition and the difficulty of achieving
consensus are presented. Finally, the
consequences of the research are outlined.

title: Editorial

authors: Findsen, Brian

abstract: This special issue of the International Journal of Ageing in Developing Countries (IJADC) focusses on learning in later life (also known as educational gerontology). As guest editor for this issue, I am hopeful that this divergent compilation of articles will provide the stimulus for further insights into what is happening in developing countries for older people in respective societies. Over the last decade there has been much more attention given to how learning and education can provide the basis for more ‘active ageing’ and ‘successful’ lives. Both learning and living are inextricably connected. This issue expands on some of these emergent perspectives.
