October is a particularly important month for the Pages project, as it is marked by the celebration of Older People's Day. ACEEU together with the Pages consortium has joined the global campaign aimed at raising public awareness about opportunities and challenges presented to the populations based on their age.
The first week of the campaign goes under the inspiring motto „Creativity doesn’t know age“ and challenging the existing bias through a series of visuals. Meanwhile, the second week of campaign, „Professionalism doesn’t have an age“, will use the same strategy to challenge a belief that young workers cannot be professional due to their age. Within the third and the fourth weeks of the dissemination campaign, „EngAge at any age“and „I am not too young to / Not too old to“, Project partners will implement activities, and launch a video-challenge to bring together older and young people in an action that can be interesting for both sides, fostering this way a relationship that can have mutual benefits.
And how would you complete the „I am not too old to / I am not too young to….” statement?
