First Transnational Partner Meeting
A Collaborative Start for IL4SH in Valencia
In February 2024, the IL4SH project team convened in Valencia for the first Transnational Partner Meeting, marking an important milestone in our journey toward promoting intergenerational learning and sustainability. This two-day meeting brought together project partners from across Europe to align on objectives, share insights, and plan for the next phases of the project.
Key Highlights

Partners appreciated the opportunity to meet in person and strengthen working relationships. Many noted that the discussions helped clarify roles, timelines, and project goals. One partner commented, “Getting to know everyone in person and building a common working basis was invaluable.”
Engaging Discussions:
The meeting provided a platform for in-depth conversations about the IL4SH eBook and upcoming workshops. Partners expressed excitement about the innovative approaches being developed, with one remarking, “The discussions were very helpful in getting an even better grasp of the project.”
Sustainability Focus:
Reflecting the project’s mission, sustainability was a key topic during the meeting. Partners shared ideas on making the project and its meetings more eco-friendly, such as reducing single-use plastics and encouraging public transport. This aligns with our commitment to practicing the principles we aim to promote.
The meeting concluded with a sense of shared purpose and confidence in the project’s direction. Partners left with new knowledge, strengthened connections, and clear action points for the next stages of IL4SH. As one attendee put it, “This experience gave me confidence that we are going to achieve our goals together.”
We are excited to continue building on the momentum of this first meeting as we develop resources and activities to inspire intergenerational learning and sustainability. Thank you to all partners for their dedication and enthusiasm—together, we are making strides toward a greener future!
