The Old School
A productive ageing event on how to age well with creativity and dignity in Hong Kong.
A public engagement design concept for enabling people of all ages to be inspired by what it means to get OLD and share the knowledge of “Ageing“ with each other. Enable Foundation team co-created into four sets of OLD Drills installation with London-based designer and artist Pascal Anson since March 2019, so that people of all generations can be inspired - learning what it means to get old when you are young, and teach it when you are old. It is hoped that the intergenerational co-creation activities will produce meaningful communication regarding ageing, so that we can all be better prepared for our future super-ageing society.
