Vöcklabruck to host workshop on aging and community living

Regional management in Upper Austria is organizing a 'ProjektLabor' on September 23, 2026, in Vöcklabruck to address the challenges of an aging population. The event aims to transform ideas from the 'Wie geht's, Alter?' traveling exhibition into concrete regional projects for the Vöcklabruck and Gmunden districts.

Participants will work in small groups to develop initiatives such as adapting family farms for senior care, creating intergenerational living communities, and implementing age-friendly urban measures like 'friendship benches' in Vöcklabruck. The workshop seeks to bring together community leaders, social institutions, and engaged citizens to foster self-determined living for older residents.
