Senior x purpose of life matching business Yokohama positive aging

With the age of 100 years of life, life after the age of 60 has become longer. With the diversification of ways of interacting with the community and working styles, there are senior generations who are free to select or combine various options according to their own interests, physical strength, and circumstances. . "Yokohama Positive Aging" is a program that connects senior generations with the activities of local organizations and companies. After taking basic courses, individuals and groups can participate in local activities.
"I want to do something but have no chance," "I want to contribute to the community," "I want to get new learning."
We look forward to your participation.

①　Activities that lead to social participation (paid or free volunteers) of senior generations who can utilize the knowledge and experience cultivated in work, etc.
　※Activities that are different from working
②　Activities cut out from local organizations, companies, etc. in a form that matches the characteristics and wishes of the individual.
③　Activities to improve the region, such as solving local issues and promoting local industries, to realize a community-friendly society.

Those who are approximately 60 years old or older and are interested in activities in the area where they can utilize the knowledge and experience cultivated through work etc.

First of all, let's take a basic course.
After taking the basic course, we will match opportunities for individuals and groups to participate in activities at local companies and organizations.
There are two types of activities in companies and organizations:
− “Skill matching” that closely matches the needs of students ・ ・ ・ ・ ・ For those who have taken basic courses, we will individually support matching activities at companies and organizations.
− “Team Challenge” to address the needs of companies and organizations: We will recruit applicants among those who have attended group activities in advance, create a group of 3 to 4 people, and work on activities in companies and organizations. .
