Volunteering students from the Third Age University in Ljubljana will work as cultural mediators and this way transmit cultural heritage to younger generations.
The focal points of the project will be efforts related to different museum collections in Slovenia. Such activities include educational and training programmes and public campaigning. The Third Age University has been a pioneer in this field in Slovenia and an inspiration to many other museums in Slovenia.
