Laboratory 4, titled “Educational processes for lifelong learning”, coordinated by Michele Bertani and Inmaculada Solís García, explores diverse initiatives aimed at promoting active ageing and lifelong education. The projects address intergenerational practices within organizations, non-formal education, and social inclusion through territorial networks. Key topics include self-care, social tourism, home assistance for the elderly, and language learning for cognitive and social well-being. Innovative approaches such as healing gardens are presented as tools for enhancing quality of life. The University of Florence’s “Università dell’Età Libera” showcases a flexible educational model catering to adult learners’ needs for knowledge and social connection. The laboratory emphasizes the value of midlife as a phase of transformation, advocating for educational strategies that empower individuals regardless of age. Overall, the contributions suggest a paradigm shift: ageing is reframed not as decline, but as an opportunity for personal growth, active participation, and the intergenerational transfer of knowledge.
