In today’s social reality, both older adults and children with disabilities often face the risk of social isolation. “Chemi Mordu” addresses this challenge through its structure - daily life here is organized in a way that encourages natural interaction between generations, rather than separating them.
For children, communication with elderlies foster emotional stability, trust, and the development of social skills. They learn to listen, be patient, consider others’ abilities and show empathy - skills essential for their social integration.
For elderlies, interaction with children helps restore a sense of rhythm in daily life and reinforces their sense of purpose. Spending time together reduces loneliness, increases positive emotions and supports cognitive engagement.
Shared activities create mutual benefits: children receive attention and support, while older adults gain engagement and renewed energy.
The coexistence of these two services in one space strengthens everyday interactions and builds a supportive social environment where care and sharing become natural processes.
A shared environment:
- strengthens tolerance and an inclusive culture;
- reduces stigma toward persons with disabilities;
- enables older adults to maintain an active civic role;
- provides children with real-life social experience.
The sustainability of this model is ensured by coordinated work among specialists from different services, making activities safe, adaptive, and tailored to each beneficiary.
“Chemi Mordu” is not just a service delivery space. It is a model where mutual care has become a daily practice.
This experience shows that intergenerational connection is a fundamental pillar of building a strong and inclusive society—and “Chemi Mordu” is a practical example of this approach.
