The Helen Barrie National Prize honours Dr. Helen Barrie, a Senior Research Fellow at the University of South Australia and Director of The Australian Alliance of Social Enterprise. As a social gerontologist and geographer, Dr. Barrie has dedicated her career to studying Australia's changing and ageing population and the implications for society and communities. A passionate AAG member since 2006, she was instrumental in developing the student section of the organization, served as both State and National President, and awarded life membership in 2017.
