Hello Learn2Link (L2L) community! ๐
We're back with more exciting updates from our 2026 Global Changemakers VE!
All summer, our changemakers have been working to bring Advikaโs original project idea to life: a series of community-based workshops that will bring older adults and young people together to build their digital confidence, while tackling UN SDGs 4: Quality Education and 10: Reduced Inequalities.
After careful consideration, our changemakers decided to implement this yearโs Connecting Generations project in the U.S., with our Vietnam-based youth supporting with idea generation and resource prep. This intercultural collaboration continues to reflect the heart of our global learning community. ๐
While developing their project plans, our changemakers had the opportunity to meet with:
๐ฑ Katie (she/her), Service Coordinator for Toddlers to Grandparents, L2L Board Secretary, and our Connecting Generations Community Advisor. Katie is a dedicated public servant who has spent many years working alongside local youth and adults living with disabilities and their families, helping them to access quality education and essential support services.
She joined our feedback meeting with such bright energy, providing thoughtful guidance and practical advice for our changemakers. Since then, her insights have helped to transform their early ideas into a strategic action plan.
โค๏ธ To Katie, thank you for sharing your time, experience, and encouragement with our changemakers. And to our 2026 Global Changemakers, thank you for your dedication, creativity, and commitment to serving the community.
Stay tuned for more updates, as we get ready to launch our first Connecting Generations workshop this Thursday!
Together, we learn. And together, we grow. ๐ฟ
