AnnotationThis essay is primarily concerned with programmes and institutions that identify specific learning goals and aim to enhance educational ventures through multigenerational perspectives. It discusses the rationales for intergenerational programmes, the transforming effects of intergenerational education, and intergenerational versus age-segregated programmes. The author emphasises that intergenerational learning is not only an attractive educational idea, it is also a socially positive one.
