Intergenerational Speaker Series |
CALL has partnered with the Nursing Program at Mt. Royal University to offer a series of four lectures in the next year that will bring together older adults and university students to meet and engage in discussion. It will be a unique opportunity for learning and for forming new connections across generations. Over the coming year we will offer 4 events, each beginning with a guest speaker, a panel, a film … something to set the stage and provide a focus for a lively and informative discussion. Following a light lunch snack, we will meet in small intergenerational groups for a facilitated conversation. All the events will take place in the Lincoln Park Room of Mt. Royal University from 11 am to 1pm. Dates September 28, 2022; November 2, 2022; January 18, 2023 and March 8, 2023 Watch the CALL newsletter for information about upcoming topics and speakers and link to the program website (www.mru.ca/igss) |
Framing our Memories |
The intention of the event is to honour intergenerational connections by learning to capture and preserve memories. We hope to create a space that allows participants to creatively express themselves, learn from other generations, discover ways to share stories, and recognize the beauty of leaving a meaningful legacy. |
