“Conectados” (March 5-6) – For ages 55+, teaching mobile use, video calls, online procedures, and digital entertainment safely.
“En mi pueblo” (April 9-10) – Helping seniors create videos on their traditions and experiences, promoting intergenerational exchange.
“Yo Conecto” (May 6-9) – A comprehensive course for 60+, covering online security, banking, learning platforms, social media, and video calls.
“Saludables” (June 4-5) – Focused on health apps for medical appointments, prescriptions, nutrition, and exercise.
Councilor Carmen Portugal highlighted the initiative’s goal of fostering independence and improving family communication, especially with younger generations.
