Upcoming Homeside meeting in Australia February 4-6, 2020

The University of Melbourne is hosting the 4th international Homeside meeting. The Australian Homeside team are excitedly preparing to welcome their international Homeside colleagues to Melbourne where they will host the first 2020 full team meeting from February 4-6. The meeting is to be held at the newly opened Melbourne Conservatorium of Music: Ian Potter Southbank Centre (https://finearts-music.unimelb.edu.au/campus-experience/the-ian-potter-southbank-centre) and comprises a full agenda addressing recruitment, data management and learnings from the early roll out of interventions across countries. Time will also be spent on the advancement of special projects within the study that require separate consideration, including the effectiveness of recruitment strategies, development of a smart phone app for broader roll out of the music intervention, and the challenges that can arise in cross-cultural research, to name just a few.
