Bridging Generations: Reimagining Ageing as a Shared Journey

In a world continuously reshaped by migration, digital transformation, and shifting social norms, the spaces between generations are widening even as the need for connection grows stronger. The India Intergenerational Bonding Report (INBO) 2025 by HelpAge India draws critical attention to this evolving social landscape, examining how bonds across ages shape emotional well-being, social cohesion, and the collective resilience of families and communities.

Through its findings — and the insights shared during HelpAge India’s recent webinar, “Building Bridges: Intergenerational Connections, Shaping the Future” — the conversation around ageing moves beyond demographic statistics to a more human, interdependent vision: one that sees ageing not as a solitary journey, but as a shared societal experience.
