CA Exchange: "Cycling to Care – Intergenerational Well-being and Climate Resilience on the Move"

The next CA Exchange is coming up! With this webinar series we highlight great activities in our network and foster interaction and exchange between colleagues from different member institutions and beyond. On 9 December 2025, 15.00-16.00 CET, Giulia Sonetti (UPC/ISGlobal), will introduce the project Cycling to Care (C2C) and share emerging findings from pilot interventions in Barcelona, where young volunteers cycle with older residents to explore emotional, social, and environmental transformation in everyday urban life. The session will invite participants to reflect on the role of affective and experiential learning in sustainability transitions and how universities can foster well-being through place-based, intergenerational collaboration. Please register by 4 December 2025


CA Exchange: "Cycling to Care – Intergenerational Well-being and Climate Resilience on the Move"
9 December 2025
15.00-16.00 CET
online (Zoom)

Cycling to Care (C2C) is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie funded project exploring how intergenerational encounters, active mobility, and connection with nature can strengthen mental well-being and climate resilience among young people. Leveraging on the international Cycling Without Age movement, C2C combines citizen science, art-based inquiry, and urban sustainability research to co-create practices that alleviate eco-anxiety and promote care-based community engagement.

In this CA Exchange, Giulia Sonetti (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya – Barcelona Tech & ISGlobal) will introduce the project’s theoretical framework and share emerging findings from pilot interventions in Barcelona, where young volunteers cycle with older residents to explore emotional, social, and environmental transformation in everyday urban life. The session will invite participants to reflect on the role of affective and experiential learning in sustainability transitions and how universities can foster well-being through place-based, intergenerational collaboration.
