The Albert Vives school and the Taller Claror have culminated an intergenerational coexistence initiative in La Seu d'Urgell, focused on the use of language and traditional games.

The third edition of the Paraules per a tothom project has concluded with a meeting that served to review the activities carried out during the course. This proposal seeks to strengthen bonds between generations through playful dynamics, such as riddles, proverbs, and idioms, in addition to incorporating crafts and sports.
The initiative has allowed people of different ages, from 18 to 70 years old, to share experiences and knowledge. According to the management of the occupational center, the interaction has been very enriching, especially when sharing experiences related to old materials and local history.

"The function of an archive is not only to preserve knowledge for posterity, but also to transmit values. It is a social space and we must never forget that our function towards the citizenry is based on knowledge, but also on the most human aspects."

As a closing act, a set of materials was delivered to the Arxiu Comarcal de l'Alt Urgell to document the work carried out. This was the first event held at the facility after a fire on June 2nd affected the power supply and the public service.
