Staff Training - CoblAges meeting in Ourense

How can we create the proper framework to prepare HE students and involve communities to be active in preparing a better future for our ageing population?

During the 25th to 27th of June the CoblAges partners are meeting in Ourense, Spain for the first conjoint staff training to tackle this challenge.

Hosted by the University of Vigo, the partners will be working on harmonizing the CoblAges methodology for using CBL (Community Based Learning) as a tool for Intergenerational Citizenship in preparing higher education students for an ageing world. This will also set up the foundation for the other resources developed within our initiative.

The first day was full of insights and rich in dynamic activities and the partners had the opportunity to visit the Lodoselo community center. Lodoselo is a center for people, for the rural community, where people are an active part and not just recipients of services.
