Often the focus is on intercultural differences, but sometimes the differences between generations are greater and lead to more social problems. In our training courses we bring these generations together, focusing on stories that connect the groups instead of divide them. We use different methods for this, with the result that young and old understand each other better and deal with each other more easily.
Training is tailor-made, depending on the target group and the goal. This can range from social anxiety among the elderly, young people getting to know the neighbourhood and seniors who guide unemployed young people. Contact us for more information about a workshop.
