▶Objectives
The objectives set were: To promote wider engagement of older adults in green practices: we wanted to promote a more nuanced understanding of older adults’ activism by considering the different contexts and challenges they face. Our aim was to inspire and empower older adults to actively participate in environmental initiatives and adopt sustainable behaviours. To support adult educators and education centres: we wanted to support them to improve their practices in the field of environmental education for older adults. This included providing resources, training and guidance to equip them with the tools they need to effectively engage older adults in environmental issues and activities. To strengthen the role of older adults in participating in environmental initiatives and as active members of the community. By empowering older adults to participate in environmental activities, we aimed to strengthen their voice, action and influence in addressing environmental issues.
