Global Intergenerational Week (GIW) is an annual campaign celebrating all things intergenerational, and there are plenty of nonfiction books exploring these relationships. It is an opportunity to celebrate good inclusive intergenerational practices. GIW is organised by Generations Working Together, a non-profit organisation that promotes intergenerational relationships and activities. The week takes place every year in April and features a variety of events and activities that bring people of different generations together.

What are intergenerational relationships?

The definition of Intergenerational, as it relates to literature, refers to a book involving characters of different age groups. More specifically, in academic research terms, according to Professor Feliciano Villar, intergeneration is defined as “the involvement of members of two or more generations in activities that could potentially make them aware of different perspectives.”

GIW is a great opportunity to learn more about intergenerational relationships and to get involved in activities that bring people of different generations together. If you are interested in getting involved in GIW, you can find more information on the Generations Working Together website.
