Intergenerational Community Building is a social process that systematically fosters reciprocal relationships, mutual learning, and collective agency across distinct generational groups within a community, distinguished by its intentional integration of intergenerational dialogue, shared cultural practices such as music, and co-constructed knowledge to strengthen communal identity and civic engagement.
