Abstract

Intergenerational learning was conceptualised as an informal process taking place in families and societies. In the traditional community like Baduy, the learning process does not happen in formal institution. It is through every day interaction among community members that learning between generation occur through observing, imitating and modelling. This paper identifies the benefits of intergenerational learning among Baduy community members. The data and information for this study was collected through interviews that include community leaders, parents, and young peoples. Research findings show that the benefit of intergenerational learning as being primarily related to the enhancement of social capital. There are some benefits of intergenerational learning for both younger and older community members; cultural understanding between generations, intergenerational solidarity, promoting life skills among youth, and transformation of the attitudes of younger members. The intergenerational learning provides learning opportunities among different generation and it facilitate ‘learning society’ in the informal learning context.
