Our goal is to reduce the isolation of elderly people in our community and to encourage people to talk and check up on them. We want to reduce their loneliness after Covid-19 and show them that they have value and are an integral part of our community.
Our Social Issue
loneliness, social anxiety, isolation Bring our community together
Why We Chose It
We were determined to give back to our community all the good things that we got from them, we consider elder people an essential part of our community and after COVID we were heart broken to see how they have been feeling more disconnected from their own community due to social anxiety, isolation and deep feeling of loneliness.
Our Goal
We aim to bring generations together and connect them through technology, sharing their stories and reminding them that they mean wisdom and experience to us in order to make a way to the future together, hopefully will make them feel more connected and less isolated.
Our Innovative Action
We've linked with an expert on the field of podcasting(Elaine Smith) and she has been instructing us on few tips and the best way to conduct the interviews,apps that could be used and platforms to updload our content when completed. We interviewed teachers topractice. we are designing posters to raise awareness about loneliness and figures to make people aware of the problem we are addressing. Interviews will take place in the next few weeks, at the moment we are calling out people in our community to be part of our project and getting ready the interviews guide to follow.
Our Impact
We hope to have connected people and generations in our community. Using modern devices and technology to offer something that elder people are familiar with such the radio brings together different generations for a beautiful outcome of beating together loneliness and social anxiety and remind them that they are a valuable part of our communicty.
