About the event
To mark this two-year milestone, we hosted the Genect Impact Forum at B-Con Plaza, in collaboration with the Oita Self-Support Center. The forum brought together representatives from Beppu City Hall, community leaders, and citizens to openly exchange ideas on how Beppu can become a model intergenerational city.
Forum highlights included:
▪️ Insights supported by real testimonials and program data, showing how intergenerational connection positively impacts both youth and seniors
▪️ Reflection on Genect’s journey—from 4 to 60+ members, partnerships with 5 nursing homes and 3 institutions, and expansion to Indonesia and the U.S.
▪️ Announcement of our 2030 goal: building 1,000 active Genect members in Beppu, and the launch of our official Genect LINE account to make activities and buddy sessions more accessible
