Croatia: New Voice of Old School
The everyday use of new media is nowadays taken for granted by all young people but for older adults, however, it is not so common. The project aims to provide older adults with knowledge of using new technology, especially internet so they can establish on line participation on issues that affect them (e.g. e-democracy). In this way they will increase social contact and reduce feelings of isolation so they feel more integrated into the society.
Kenya: Forgotten Culture Coming with Forces and Solutions
Erosion of culture has caused decay of many people especially the youths. This is becouse they lack knowledge or people who they can learn from. This project will act as the persona where they can learn from, we will do this by visiting the eldery people who seems to be forgoten and having talkshows with them and hence bringing them in new technology eg in twitter where most youths go in search of information.
