Hien Thi Nguyen is currently a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at ECU Social Ageing (SAGE) Futures Lab, School of Arts and Humanities, Edith Cowan University. Her current research focuses on four areas: migration and diversity; ageing across the life course; social frailty and wellbeing; and gender and development. Hien uses social science perspectives and methodologies to support creative and caring professions. This approach is targeted at the development of a social care research agenda for the aged care sector to facilitate collaborative communities of care that extend people’s support networks at every age, with a particular focus on: (i) Social and Cultural Care; (ii) Diverse and Migrant Communities; (iii) Music and Arts Engagement; and (iv) Digital Ageing and Inclusion.

Hien is a member of the TRACS Migration Research Network at ECU to support an active program of national and international collaborations. Hien is also the Project Manager of The Decentering Migration Knowledge (DEMIKNOW) Project, which brings together four research entities in Canada, India, China and Australia.
