Objective 1 Development and improvement of social and digital skills from VET-students with their teachers and older people is realized. In this project, pedagogically valuable methods and methodologies are developed that are well suited for teachers and learners to develop and improve social and digital skills, combined with Culinary Heritage. The learning and instruction materials that serve this goal can be viewed and downloaded in the Web App. The joint intergenerational activities contribute to develop a cooperation and better understanding between young and old. Objective 2 Digital possibilities for intergenerational communication and the digital readiness of older people contribute to improve their skills. During the project VET-students and older people had interviews to collect CH recipes, to create regional online cookbooks and to use it for joint cooking events or comparable intergenerational activities. Objective 3 Learning scenario 'Culinary Heritage' contribute to make VET lessons more attractive and stimulate intergenerational contacts. CH has proven to be the best way to achieve the above-mentioned goal to develop and improve social and digital skills among VET students with their teachers and older people.
