Definition[edit | edit source]
Intergenerational segregation refers to a social phenomenon where different age groups, such as children, young adults, middle-aged adults, and elderly individuals, are physically separated from one another and do not interact within the same spaces or communities. This segregation can occur in various settings such as schools, neighborhoods, workplaces, and social events.
Intergenerational segregation can have negative consequences on individuals and society as a whole. It can lead to misunderstandings and stereotypes between different age groups, hinder social cohesion and support systems, and contribute to ageism and discrimination. It can also limit opportunities for intergenerational learning and collaboration.
Efforts to promote intergenerational integration and interaction can help bridge the gap between different age groups and foster understanding and respect among individuals of all ages. This can be achieved through intergenerational programs, community events, and initiatives that bring people of different generations together to learn from one another and build connections.
