Tulip Foundation announces the annual campaign for the European Day of Solidarity between Generations on 29 April 2018. Since 2009 this day is dedicated to the solidarity between people from different generations in Europa.

We get to know and understand the world by what we learn from our parents and grandparents, from teachers, coaches and lecturers, from friends and colleagues. The important, interesting and significant things we share and pass on to our children, grandchildren, students. The solidarity between generations has many various forms but the sense is one and the same - to live well together, to share with others what we know and can, and to rely on them for what they know and can.

This spring again we encourage partners, colleagues and friends to join the national campaign for the European Day of Solidarity between Generations. Our aim is to encourage and organise various joint initiatives of people from all generations and to bring the attention of the society on the importance of continuity, understanding, respect and solidarity among people. Tens of organisations around the country will participate in the campaign.

Join us! Let’s together be a part of the European Day of Solidarity between Generations – 29 April 2018!
