Working with Older Volunteers in Manual Intergenerational Projects
Method: Planning Process 3 – Survey of Demands
Goals / Options:
This step should determine whether a real need for an exchange really exists, whether the
interested elderly want to participate in such an exchange, whether the organisation is
willing to support the project, and whether there is a body that would take over the funding.
At first, this involves creating a compilation of who would be in demand for such
an exchange. Accordingly, this will have to undergo a subsequent review.
