I think there’s a special magic that happens when generations come together. There’s a mutuality that emerges and a collapsing of power dynamics that invites us into a space of sharing our stories as co-learners. And reminds us that we have so much to learn from each other.

Amidst so much grief and brokenness, unlikely relationships across age can be transformative, teaching us how to care for each other.

Cogeneration has the potential to be the biggest social change opportunity of the 21st century.

Young people are building the world they’re going to have to live in. We want to shape the world that we’re going to leave behind. Those two things mesh up beautifully.

If we don’t learn from the past, we’re setting ourselves up for failure. I think there’s enormous power in admitting that you might not know everything.

We want to unleash the power of the young, capture the wisdom of the older, and create something new that all of us will be proud of.

Older people know how the system works and they have the social and financial capital to pull levers and make things happen, but they won’t come up with the right answer if there are no young people at the table. All of our biggest problems need intergenerational collaboration to succeed.

It is heartening to discover that when we take down our age-apartheid barriers, life can be like a multigen potluck, with each of us bringing to the table what we know or do best.

We have to fight the climate crisis with the energy and ideas of the young people and the wisdom and experience of our elders. The only way we can solve this is by working on it together.

Intergenerational collaboration works best when it’s a two-way street and there’s mutual understanding and removing of stigma. The relationship is based on hope and optimism but also on accountability and progress. Young people aren’t just used as a ‘youth voice,’ but they are actually on the leadership team or board of directors.

It uplifts me to think about what older and younger people can do when we join forces. Fight polarization, end loneliness, beat back racism and ageism, save democracy and the planet. Why not? No mountain will be too high.
