The Universitat de València joins the celebrations for the “European Day of Solidarity between Generations”, celebrated every year on 29 April, and organises the 2nd Intergenerational and Interdisciplinary Meeting of the Universitat de València, which will take place at the La Nau Cultural Centre on 26 April 2024. The protagonists of this meeting will be the students of a variety of Nau Gran pathways and the different undergraduate degrees linked to these pathways.

The meeting will tackle sensitive and current topics, for both generations, through the common thread of “Sustainable Development Goals” (SDGs) which are a part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development of the United Nations.

For this purpose, spaces for reflection, debate and the exchange of perspectives and experiences will be opened.

The initiative stems from a Project of Teaching Innovation of the Universitat de València, directed by Department of Geography professor Maria Pilar Peñarrubia, and has the support of the Staff Development and Educational Innovation Service (SFPIE), the Nau Gran programme, managed by the University Culture Service of the Office of the Vice-Principal for Culture and Society, and the support of the Centre Innovation Plan of the Faculty of Geography and History.

The ultimate goal of the activity is to make the learning process flexible in order to more thoroughly assimilate concepts and contents through exposition, discussion and the use of first-person experiences as a teaching resource, taking advantage of the intergenerational value as a driving force for coexistence, reflection and learning.

This event is preceded by similar successful experiences, all of them with interesting results regarding learning of contents, acquisition of competences, individual growth and emotional development for all generations.
