Abstract

An experience of intergenerational training and community participation between students of the Faculty of Education of Soria and older people is reported. This intervention was carried out in the first four-month period of 2020-21. The action consists of an approach to the podcast as a tool for socio-educational innovation and communication between groups of different ages and educational contexts. The aim is to strengthen relations between the two groups and promote meeting actions in the context of COVID-19. The aim is to stimulate rapprochement, eliminate geronto-phobic prejudices and promote social health. The action is based on the premise of lifelong education in formal, non-formal and informal contexts. The pandemic adds the emerging objective of alleviating unchosen isolation, especially among the most vulnerable older people. This is a comprehensive experience, based on ethnographic fieldwork and centred on experimentation. It is concluded that this type of action reduces social prejudices and the impact of the digital divide and that, despite the unfulfilled desires of the participants (who experienced the screen as a barrier and facilitator of encounters), positive and healthy socio-affective synergies are generated in both groups.
