Annotation | Forging intergenerational communities begins with the recognition that each generation has needs that can be met, at least in part, through frequent and meaningful contact with people from the opposite end of the age spectrum. This article explores how changes in information technology both obstruct and offer opportunities to professionals in ageing interested in fostering intergenerational communities. |
