In Bergen, Norway, a two-day ageing festival is testing out new ways to build an age-friendly society鈥攖hrough culture, conversation and shared experiences. Myra Anubi joins in, meeting the people finding creative answers to loneliness, mental health, care and belonging, and hearing hopes for a future where generations mix rather than separate. From masterclasses to inspiring collective events, the festival鈥檚 aim is to make ageing something we can all become more comfortable with and even celebrate. People Fixing The World from the 麻豆社 is about brilliant solutions to the world's problems. We release a new edition every Tuesday.
