Creating meaningful intergenerational community events

[Nora3]

I'm passionate about creating intergenerational community events that bridge age gaps and create meaningful connections between young and old. What types of activities facilitate genuine interaction between different generations? How do you overcome the initial awkwardness or communication barriers? What have you found works best for getting different age groups to participate together rather than just being in the same space? I want to create events where everyone learns from each other.
