Today, we head to the region that's home to the world's happiest countries to hear what ageing in Scandinavia is like, with our guest Carrie Peterson.

She has worked as a consultant and advisor to a number of organisations including the World Health Organisation, the International Caregivers Association and Aging 2.0.

Carrie completed her PHD in gerontechnology - looking at the use of smart home technology in aged care settings which we talk about in this episode.
