This innovation seed fund training programme is part of a wider initiative to provide culturally embedded learning programmes within schools that teach traditional Pacific Island cultural traditions and practices. This intergenerational learning continues to bridge the gap between generations by fostering meaningful interactions and knowledge-sharing between seniors and younger generations. Included, is some online immersive learning field trip experiences to connect learners with cultural events and rituals.
Many students, individuals and communities face barriers to learning that is culturally embedded and built on the intergenerational knowledge and experience from within their communities. Falelalaga seeks to address this by providing cultural learning opportunities, resources and events that are inclusive and accessible to individuals of all ages, and socioeconomic groups.
Falelalaga Cultural and Education Centre was established in 2021 to preserve and promote the rich cultural heritage of the Pacific Island community. They are a bridge between the past and the future by honouring and cherishing the wisdom and experiences of our older generation to foster educational growth and innovation within cultural contexts. Falelalaga is committed to proactive community outreach, ensuring accessibility of its facilities and events, inclusive and promote diversity. Through intergenerational learning initiatives, programmes foster meaningful interactions between seniors and younger generations in schools and community spaces. An inclusive curriculum which represents diverse cultural traditions, and includes digital initiatives, will provide immersive learning experiences.
