Engaging interested senior citizens

Enlisting involvement of elders

Description

Engaging interested senior citizens involves actively involving older adults in community, educational, and social initiatives that leverage their experience and skills. This strategy addresses issues of isolation, underutilization of expertise, and declining well-being among seniors by creating opportunities for meaningful participation. Practical actions include organizing volunteer programs, intergenerational activities, and advisory roles, thereby enhancing seniors’ sense of purpose, improving social integration, and fostering mutual benefit between generations and the wider community.
