Dialogue of generations from young to old: building the future together. Intergenerational interaction program

Abstract

The program proposes to implement the idea of the art of living with others as a strategy of moving away from the discourse of intergenerational gaps to finding ways of mutual assistance, mutual enrichment and strengthening intergenerational ties to ensure human-centeredness, sustainability and resilience of society in its present and future. The main perspective is to create conditions for intergenerational exchange based on an understanding of the problems and needs of different generations and the capacity of each generation to share its experience and resources. Intergenerational relations, their quality and level fulfill an integrative function in society and determine the level of its consolidation and solidarity. In modern conditions it is the most important factor of unity through intergenerational relations of the family, various communities and the whole Russian society.
