ICU is an essential part of living with others in the 21st century (ACARA, 2012) and for building a culturally diverse but cohesive society in Australia (MCEETYA, 2008, p.4). This large-scale Australian Research Council project is working with schools and schooling systems to help them build intercultural understanding.s the 2014 school year draws to a close, the four ICU School Networks will have the opportunity to reflect on and share their work in building intercultural understanding through a final ICU Showcase Day held at Deakin Prime.
Cities in the South and Midwest dominated the list of best places to retire early, mostly due to a lower average cost of living than any of the four regions studied. Southern and Midwestern cities boasted an average cost of living score of 63 â13 points higher than the average score across all 216 cities studied of (50).
The most aged regions come largely in two forms. Retirement metro areas are older in large part due to longstanding patterns of senior migration. First on our list of most aged places is Tampa-St. Petersburg, Fla., where 18.7 percent of the population is over 65, well above the national average of 13.3 percent. Tucson, in dry and warm Arizona, ranks third at 17.7 percent while Miami is fourth, with 17 percent. But many of Americaâs oldest metro areas have little in common with arid Arizona or steamy Florida.
