Only Human Communication

Inspiring, not retiring
Celebrating active older Australians

These stories were collected from some of Australia’s most inspiring Australians. All the storytellers were  nominated for the Senior Australian of the Year and prove you don’t have to be young to make a difference.  It was commissioned by the Department of Health and Ageing for publication in 2005 and was followed the next year by a calendar with wonderful mini vignettes.

This was the first time Moya and OH photographer Dean Golja teamed up on a project. They been working together with Only Human ever since.

“This book was commissioned to honour the lives and achievements of older Australians… It has proven to be so popular both in Australia and internationally. We feel we know the people, we recognise their problems and we see their achievements as tangible, practical and attainable.”

Fiona Lynch-Magor, Assistant Secretary, Office for An Ageing Australia
