Recording memories and traditions for the future
The project aims to activate elderly people to participate in the life long learning and thus maintain their inTellectual and
memory and to avoid exclusion from the role of active citizen. During the project we will arrange study groups where the
attendants can remember and record old memories.
In connections with the project the participants will also learn to use services provided by the internet when retrieving and
presenting information. Also the group leaders have possibilities to become acquainted with the methods that are used in
different countries. For the group leader there will be a short training, too.
Local schools, tourist's entrepreneurs, quid's archive and museums will also exploit the material that is collected and
recorded in study groups. Personal memories complement historiography and make it live.
