Agnieszka Labus was asked, by Nowiny Gliwickie Newspaper, to comment on what the future of Gliwice will be. We believe that is an oportunity for LAB60+ to use it for signing the manifesto - age-friendly in Gliwice. Read the entire newspaper article: here

A great day for LAB 60+! Today we received the award in the competition "Innovations in Politics". The finalists of the competition submitted in 2020, but because of the Covid COVID-19 pandemic, the event cannot be held at that time. On January 14 in Royal Baths in Warsaw, Edyta Sadowska and Barbara Woźniak received a diploma for LAB 60+ from Jerzy Buzka. We are very happy that our actions have been appreciated. Thank You!

New Year - a breath of changes in the LAB 60+  - new changes, new people in the team and a new motto:

“You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.” - [Buckminster Fuller]

Yesterday, Agnieszka Labus had the opportunity to take part in a group interview for representatives of non-governmental organizations at the invitation of PwC and the GZM Metropolis. It was the part of the preparation of the Development Strategy of the Metropolis GZM for 2022-2027 with a perspective until 2035.

We end 2021 with a very good news! Our Foundation Laboratory of Architecture 60 +, some time ago was invited by international partners to submit an application in the program Erasmus + in Key Action 2 and with the New Year 2022 will implement for the next 2 years the project entitled. "GreenerAge - CLIMATE-CHANGE AND ENVIRONMENTAL LITERACY FOR URBAN CITIZENS 55+" in partnership with: - TAMPEREEN KORKEAKOULUSAATIO SR AFEDEMY from Findland (https://www.tuni.fi/en) - ACADEMY ON AGE- FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENTS IN EUROPE BV from The Netherlands (https://www.afedemy.eu/) - ISIS GMBH, Germany (https://isis-sozialforschung.de/de/) - SHINE 2EUROPE, LDA from Portugal (https://shine2.eu/) The aim of the project is to engage people aged 55+ in the challenges we are facing with environmental change and the climate crisis, affecting the health and well-being and quality of life of EU citizens. Our lifestyles and consumption behaviour influence many aspects of our lives, including climate change and environmental protection, which are key priorities in Europe. As the research illustrates, although 55+ people are concerned about climate change, they often do not feel that they will be directly affected by it, nor that they can personally take action to stop it. Therefore, GreenerAge focuses specifically on older people and aims to positively inform, engage and reinforce positive action on climate change and reducing environmental impacts in everyday life. In an interdisciplinary and international partnership, the project will work together to identify goals and challenges that may affect our climate future. The end result will be the development of a common compendium of knowledge on environmental change (for people 55+) and the construction of a platform, accessible and friendly especially for people 55+. We thank the associated partners: GZM Metropolis and Tyska Senior Citizens Council, for the support given at the project submission stage and we hope to cooperate at the implementation stage!
