Through the implementation of this project, we aimed to activate seniors, support active aging, and facilitate the acquisition of new knowledge. Our goal was to create an environment where seniors could not only learn but also share their experiences and establish new friendships. This approach seeks to enhance their quality of life and strengthen their sense of worth in society. At the same time, we aimed to connect nations and cultures, reinforcing mutual understanding and collaboration among seniors from different countries. We believe that through joint activities and the sharing of diverse perspectives, a rich cultural environment will emerge, enriching both individuals and the entire community. This interconnectedness will contribute to a deeper understanding between various cultures and values, which is crucial for the harmonious development of society. With this project, we also strive to promote innovative approaches in the education and activation of seniors, thus contributing to their long-term sustainability and strengthening their position in society.
When applying for the project, we focused on addressing specific needs and challenges we face. The primary goal was to provide seniors with access to education and improve their financial literacy, digital skills, and personal safety, including cybersecurity. These activities stem from their vulnerability to fraud, lack of information, and limited support for their autonomy. We viewed the project as an opportunity not only to enhance seniors' practical skills but also to strengthen their independence and active participation in society. An important aspect of the project was the aim to create an inclusive environment where seniors could share their experiences and acquire new knowledge. We believe this approach will boost their confidence and motivation to engage in social activities. Furthermore, the project facilitated intergenerational cooperation, deepening the interaction between younger and older community members. In this way, we sought to promote a culture of active aging and ensure a long-term positive impact on seniors' quality of life.
