Join Us in Learning Across Generations:
A Dialogue in Experience & Study
Join us for a meaningful conversation that brings generations into dialogue: an older adult resident at EngAGE and a USC Gerontology student studying the complexities of aging.
Now in its sixth year, the 2026 Global Intergenerational Week (#GIW26) continues to champion and celebrate meaningful connections between generations. Taking place from April 24th to 30th , the campaign invites communities around the globe to come together to embrace and promote intergenerational practice in all its forms.
Join Liv Schaffer, Intergenerational Director, April 30th, 3-4pm, as she hosts our #GIW26 webinar advancing opportunities to connect to celebrate some of the intergenerational friendships already catalyzed by EngAGE programs.
This conversation will offer a rare opportunity to hear how personal history and academic study intersect, reminding us that some of the most powerful insights about aging emerge through genuine human connection.

The conversation will include Maria Yglesias, a 68-year-old EngAGE resident originally from Spain, Maria came to the United States when she was 23 years old and worked in retail, sales and optometry. Maria walks 2-5 miles daily and loves talking with people. Shaakhini Satchi is a junior at USC studying Human Development and Aging. When she is not volunteering at EngAGE, she likes to read, write, run, and cook.
Together, they will share stories, questions, and reflections on what it means to grow older, what younger generations are learning about aging today, and how relationships across generations can shape and impact our understanding of life’s later chapters.
