About

COTA Tasmania (Council on the Ageing) has been the voice of older Tasmanians for 60 years.

Our Vision: Ageing in Australia is a time of possibility, opportunity and influence.

Our Mission: We advance the rights, interests and futures of Australians as we age.

Our Values

• Respect: We respect and value the contribution and lived experience of Australians as they age and support each person’s right to make choices and to participate in their community.
• Diversity: We value the great diversity that characterises Australians of all ages and are committed to genuine exchange and engagement with all older people in Australia.
• Collaboration: We communicate and work collaboratively with older people, with each other, with our partners, and with the Australian community to achieve the vision and mission of COTA.
• Integrity: We operate accountably, ethically, honestly and openly, and strive for excellence in all our interactions.
