Your Involvement Counts!
We are committed to a society in which every age counts and age discrimination has no place. There are many ways you can contribute, whether through one-off involvement or longer-term engagement as part of our volunteer team.
Get involved on a one-off basis
Support us with current initiatives:
Raise awareness
Have you come across experiences of age discrimination or positive age diversity in your family or among your friends? Encourage others to share these experiences here(LINK) on our platform.
Distribute postcards
Help spread the word about our platform and mission. We have printed and digital postcards that can be shared with your help.
Perhaps you are part of an organisation and would like to distribute them there, or you know places where different generations come together?
Feel free to contact us here(LINK) to request printed postcards (Note: postcards are only available in german).
Below you will find our digital postcards (DE). You are welcome to print them or share them with your friends and networks!
Strengthen our network
Help us gather ideas and relevant contacts so that we can reach more people and organisations together and grow our community.
