Recommendations

Info

• Working with Older Volunteers in Manual Intergenerational Projects For the sake of group dynamics shared accommodation for the participants should be arranged. Thus group identity can also be developed by informal discussions in the spare time. 4. Scheduling Problems and obstacles • Stress- and pace-related dissatisfaction Information • Senior citizens may need more time to learn and to rest. This is not because ageing brains ”work less efficiently”, but over the years work more slowly. Recommendations • In all projects with older participants an age adapted pace should be chosen. This implies that learning units include more temporal flexibility and more breaks and spare time. • The time schedule should be clarified with the participants in advance. • While planning the operation it should be checked whether the timing expected by the participants complies with the requirements of the funding guidelines.

TRAMP – Transnational Mobility of Older People in Europe 78 Part II Topic organisation of programmes 1. Project application and promotion Problems and obstacles • Increased costs for programmes aimed at the elderly • Discrepancies between funding guidelines and participants’ expectations Information • Participants of higher age often have special needs concerning transport and accommodation. Programmes for senior citizens often require more commitment in advance and more care during the project. Overall, higher personnel and non-personnel-costs can be the result. Recommendations • In the field of application and preparation of exchanges, special needs of senior citizens should be considered. When applying, the organising institution accordingly should budget higher expenses in planning and support (see also preparation). • Demands such as liberal time management in the programme should be fixed in the funding guidelines. 2. Project preparation Problems and obstacles • Participants’ uneasiness about the programme Information • Senior citizens often have a stronger need for security than younger people. They should therefore get proper information about the exchange programme and the supporting programme in advance, so that they can decide, whether it meets their needs, which problems might occur and whether they feel capable of participating in the programme. Recommendations • A thorough collective preparation of the exchange is advisable. • Preparatory information meetings and references to literature and the internet as well as other participants’ addresses which might lead to contacts in advance might increase the participants’ acceptance. • It has proved useful to provide the experience of participants from previous projects.
