“Everyone has something to contribute to this world. It’s just a matter of being given the opportunity to do so.”

Here is the motto of the project funded by the European Commission which supports health and social service providers in residential and/or community settings as well as citizens’ initiatives working with ve

ry old people in self-assessing the status-quo of participation and engagement opportunities in their organisation and developing concrete actions that make talents visible.

The consortium recently released a brochure ” to raise awareness, combat negative stereotyping and make older people and their contributions to their communities visible. Have a look at: https://www.invisible-talents.eu/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/200915_invisibletalents_Broschuere_EN_web_small.pdf
