Escapers

 

Intergenerational learning and cultural exchange methodology through escape rooms

AIM

ESCAPERS is an innovative project aimed at promoting intergenerational game-based learning opportunities and fostering social inclusion among seniors. By harnessing the power of escape games, ESCAPERS seeks to bring seniors out of isolation, enhance their digital skills, and empower them to share their valuable memories with younger generations, thus contributing to the preservation of European cultural heritage. Through the implementation of methodological guides, escape games, and local labs, ESCAPERS aims to strengthen the skills of adult educators and professionals while engaging a diverse range of participants in immersive and interactive learning experiences. With partners from Greece, Ireland, Italy and Spain, ESCAPERS envisions a future where seniors are valued for their wisdom and contributions to society, and where generations come together to learn, connect, and create meaningful memories.
