Seniors' day in Dessau: Digitization and participation in focus!

Dessau-Roßlau, Deutschland - On June 18, 2025, a Seniors' Day of the Railway and Transport Union (EVG) took place in Dessau, which pulled numerous members and their relatives into the cozy halls of the work. The event was a welcome occasion to not only exchange experiences, but also to receive relevant information on current topics of the union. Mr. Landes' lecture, which worked for many years in the Dessau plant and with personal experiences and anecdotes on the history of the location, enthused the present. A look back that not only voiceed nostalgically, but also addressed the ongoing work on the work of the works.

Another important part of the Senior Center was the information about the seminar "Digital Participation", led by the local senior management. The support of members in their everyday digital life is more than just a modern catchphrase; It becomes a need. As part of the seminar, challenges are discussed and solutions are offered that will help many senior citizens find their place in an increasingly digitized world.

Current topics in focus

Yvonne Eisenhuth, the branch manager, took the opportunity to report on current trade union issues and upcoming EVG events. Frank Strowicki, the work group chairman of the work, informed about the current Situation in the factory and reported on a recently carried out demonstration in Berlin, which was committed to maintaining jobs. Such actions are not only important, they strengthen the sense of community and emphasize the support that the EVG offers its members.

The committed atmosphere also offered a lot of space for personal conversations. Former colleagues had the opportunity to exchange ideas about everything and support each other over all sorts of things. The Seniors' Day not only joined for information on information, but also re -established social gangs.

Inclusion and digital participation as future topics

The topics of digitization and inclusion are also the focus beyond the Senior Condition. At the inclusion days of the Federal Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs (BMAS), which took place in Berlin on May 12 and 13, 2025, the importance of digital participation was emphasized. Over 250 participants from different areas discussed how a barrier -free digital transformation can succeed. Federal Minister Bärbel BAS recognized the importance of digitization for all areas of life and asked to include people with disabilities from the start in the processes. The motto "Simply make" echoed through the workshops, where innovative ideas for more inclusion was developed.

like central actors and experts: inside, including Prof. Dr. Klaus Miesenberger from the Johannes Kepler University Linz, emphasized, is digital participation a key term for the active participation of all people in social life. This discussion is of great importance, as the long -term study of digital participation shows, which illustrates the challenges and opportunities that are associated with digitization for people with disabilities.

Overall, the EVG senior citizens' day in Dessau impressively showed how important the exchange and support within the community are. Especially in a time of change, in which digital skills are increasingly in demand, the support of older people remains an important task for everyone involved
