Support of Intergenerational Dialogue and Cultural Older Adults' Participation as Tools of Transfering and Sharing Cultural Values at Local and Regional Levels
Abstract
The fundamental goal of the project presented is to encourage older people's cultural participation and the associated positive intergenerational impact of cultural events and activities at the local and regional levels. The project's implementation will provide public administration with comprehensive guidelines for systematic encouragement of intergenerational transfer and sharing of cultural values through cultural dialogue at the local and regional levels.
In that way, public policies in the area can significantly contribute to intergenerational cohabitation. The project enhances understanding of a character of the mechanisms of intergenerational dialogue that is connected with learning and cultural transmission in the contexts of local and regional cultural events and initiatives.
It shows the possibilities and indentify the competences (of public administration sector), that need to be strengthened if we want to improve the mechanisms of dialogue. The practical goal of the project is to offer the set of recommendations how to support the process of intergenerational dialogue and create the space for its functions in the public space of the municipalities and regions.
