Working with Older Volunteers in Manual Intergenerational Projects also informed about the financial aspects. This means: • A main focus was given to the new GRUNDTVIG initiatives such as workshops, learning partnerships and senior projects. (presentation in Paris) • The European infrastructure of national agencies has been part of this presentation to build up the capacity of the partner in order to further develop project plans and to create their own strategy. Increasing the transfer of the TRAMP experiences (Final Transfer Conference) by • Demonstrating experiences of existing networks and projects funded by different national and European programmes (as ENEA, GRUNDTVIG...) • Involving main stakeholders coming from the public sector like the EU representation in NRW, ministries and programme agencies from the partner countries. • Discussing the potential of existing experiences with different forms of mobility of older people in Europe • Empowering organisations to discover the potential of their own organisations by developing new project types, targeting new groups and building new cooperations. To force the upcoming new partnerships and networks, a LINK-paper has been produced “European exchanges by and for older people - European Networks and projects, methods/ materials, literature useful LINKs” You can find it on the TRAMP-homepage / database http://tramp.aulnrw.de/ Final Report 57
TRAMP – Transnational Mobility of Older People in Europe 1. Mobility of Senior Citizens as a Chance for Europe A participant of the TRAMP exchange programme commented: ”In my opinion this was an actively-lived Europe of citizens”. This illustrates that citizens perceive only a minor section of Europe and tend to view it as a Europe which consists of its political representatives and thus the heads of governments. It is nevertheless a Europe for all citizens and all age groups. “Europe for all” means that Europe should be experienced in the true sense of the word – by everyone. European projects should emphasise the personal responsibility and the potential of its senior citizens. In this context, education plays an integral and supportive role which strengthens the personal responsibility, evokes potential and enables the participation of people with different cultural backgrounds. Visibility and benefits of such initiatives in Europe require a multiplication in many different variants while continuing to develop the personal responsibility of citizens for a Europe of citizens. The elderly need to be given the chance to assume social responsibilities in Europe. This may indeed have economic effects, for example resulting in new forms of active travel, new areas of activity in educational, youth and senior citizen organisations or also leading to other ventures so that seniors may still participate in a lifelong learning experience throughout their working life in order to expand key competencies such as social and intercultural skills. 58 Part 1 Recommendations for the European Commission 2. Creating Potential for Europe There is a large number of highly motivated senior citizens in Europe who are willing to apply their skills for the common good. They are highly prepared to take over responsibility and to commit to socially meaningful projects in a European context. They show a great interest in intercultural as well as intergenerational contacts. However, many of them lack language skills and financial or organisational means. The appropriate support could • • create a tremendous learning field for these seniors regarding new European experiences, a new self-confidence and independence create a huge exploitable potential of competencies for the EU, which could be very valuable in terms of solving a variety of minor practical problems on a local and communal level and in terms of promoting comprehensive political goals such as active ageing, social inclusion and intergenerational solidarity. 3. Visualising Europe on a Local Level The manual projects, which were conducted within the scope of the TRAMP project, were specifically “invented” for these exchanges, i.e. they were not ongoing tasks of the participating organisations and incidentally taken care of. They were delayed necessities or small dreams, which, in addition to everyday business, were carried out and fulfilled with great commitment, great skill, much work and the support of the European Commission.
