Yet intergenerational connection and relationships are rare\, a situation reinforced by the age segregation that’s embedded in many of our communities and institutions. \nWhat can we do about it? We can start by deliberately bringing younger and older people together in situations where they have equal status and facilitating conversations. \nIn this interactive workshop\, you will learn: \n\nHow to bring people together\, and under what conditions\nHow to facilitate intergenerational conversations—in this case about ageism\nKey mistakes to avoid\nHow to apply the principles of facilitating intergenerational conversations about ageism to other conversations\nHow to maintain the momentum and connections formed beyond the initial conversation\nRecognize your own ageist beliefs and learn how to demonstrate non-ageist communications and behaviors with older adult patients\n\nThe workshop will include some breakout room practice. Participants will leave with a toolkit for hosting their own conversations\, as well as some sample activities for dispelling stereotypes and finding common ground. \nOn Aging Institute Faculty: \nJanine Vanderburg\, JD\, is CEO of Encore Roadmap\, and speaks\, writes\, and consults with businesses\, media and brands on how they can end ageism\, become more age-inclusive\, and leverage the benefits of intergenerational collaboration. Her ageism activism is informed not only by research\, but also by 3½ decades running a social sector consulting firm. In 2018\, Janine co-founded Changing the Narrative\, a leading U.S. campaign to end ageism\, through which she has trained 30\,000 people in 50 states and 49 countries in ageism\, reframing aging\, and creating more age-inclusive workplaces\, marketing and communications. In 2019\, Janine launched Changing the Narrative’s on the same pAGE campaign\, hosting 60 intergenerational conversations about ageism throughout the U.S. and beyond in 10 days. \nWho should attend this session: \nThis session is for anyone who: \n\nWould like to improve relationships between and better manage multigenerational workforces\nRuns gerontological or other higher education programs and would like their students to experience intergenerational conversations\nWorks in an age-friendly university that deliberately tries to connect older and younger students\nDesigns and operates intergenerational mentoring programs\nOperates programs that serve older adults (e.g.\, senior centers\, area agencies on aging\, senior living facilities)\nAdvocates for older adult issues and wants to host intergenerational conversations to better understand of how younger people experience specific issues\nBelieves in finding common ground among older and younger people\, and in dispelling us vs. them stereotypes\nWants to DO SOMETHING meaningful about ageism\n\nRegister Now
