The Melbourne Institute of Applied Economic and Social Research is proud to present the 2026 HILDA Survey Research Conference, supported by the Australian Government Department of Social Services (DSS).

The conference will showcase research findings that track how the lives of many Australians have been changing over the course of the 21st century, and the social, economic, and institutional forces driving these changes.

Particular attention will be given to the consequences of change, including impacts on health and subjective well-being, employment and jobs, family life and incomes and wealth.

The HILDA Survey Research Conference will be held at the University of Melbourne over two days:
Thursday 1 and Friday 2 October, with an optional dinner on Thursday evening.
