Promotion of the intergenerational relationships through digital media.
Main Article Content
Abstract
The need to organise encounters between different generations is growing because solidarity between generations is crucial to ensure a fair society for all ages. However, bringing together different age groups is not enough to create a successful intergenerational dialogue. The content, activities and methods used when very different groups come together, should draw the attention of members of both generations. In this regard, the possibilities that virtual tools offer for the deployment of interventions of this type should be a subject of study. Therefore, this paper presents the evidences obtained in relation to the potential of these new tools to promote the welfare of all those involved in programmes of this type, identifying and analysing the online resources used by them for this purpose. The main results suggest that these interventions offer good opportunities to share the learning on equal terms and to address their coexistence together and in completely new ways.
