**Description of research topic**

The world population is living longer while there is a growing number of people relocating to new countries. Consequently, one group is increasingly visible in modern societies—people who grow old in a new country or relocate countries as older individuals (ageing migrants). There are unique characteristics that sets apart this group from populations of older people and migrants: Ageing migrants are becoming old(er) while adapting to life in a new country. The double jeopardy of ageing and being a migrant has consequences that are specific to this population which makes ageing migrants at a high risk of poor health. Addressing the opportunities and obstacles to a long and healthy life in populations of migrants is one of the acute global challenges while the implementation of digital technologies is seen as a solution.

**Responsibilities**
- Research targeted at receiving a PhD in Psychology (cumulative through peer-reviewed publications)
- Data collection in populations of older and ageing people with a migration background
- Analysis of primary and/ or secondary data using quantitative methodology
- Peer-reviewed publications and participations at national and international conferences
