Workshops

Each project partner piloted a SLIC - workshop. Participants were older people who are already active in the community or those wishing to become active. The aim of the competence workshops is to:

  • Empower older people in all walks of life to become active citizens
  • Raise awareness for their skills and expertise
  • Encourage older participants to develop further skills and areas of activity


The interactive nature of the workshops is inclusive of all learners and delivered in a friendly, flexible, informal and supportive style. Workshop activities include group discussion, individual reflection, role play and scenarios to allow participants to share and exchange their experience and knowledge and offer peer support.

Here you can find a short description of the workshops by project partners:

Austria, England, Finland, Hungary, Italy, Scotland.

The handbook which provides details on how to run the SLIC-workshops can be found here.

Further information in the national language is available for Austria, Finland, Hungary, Italy and UK.
