Abstract

ABSTRACT While the practical benefits of intergenerational approaches are known, it remains undertheorized. To broaden knowledge and inform sustainable intergenerational programming, the discourse requires a firmer theoretical base. This conceptual article proposes that critical cosmopolitan theory holds promise as a theoretical framework. The utility of critical cosmopolitan theory is considered by unpacking the intergenerational workings of the Gray Panther movement. This article highlights the promise of critical cosmopolitanism as a theoretical framework and considers the Gray Panthers as a model for sustainable intergenerational model. This preliminary theoretical application can usefully contribute to the study of gerontology and intergenerational education.
