NEW PROGRAMME
Virtual Ageing Simulation Programme
Our Programme
The Virtual Ageing Simulation Programme enables to connect to the distinct social needs of our community and connect with others alike through digital means of engagement, as they experience virtually what it is like to be in the shoes of marginalized seniors in Singapore.
Crafted with the David Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle framework in mind, the Virtual Ageing Simulation Programme utilises the four stages of the Experiential Learning Cycle (concrete learning, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization and active experimentation) to cultivate Awareness, Empathy, Ownership and Action in participants.
At the end of the programme, participants will become more socially responsible with regards to the social issues faced by the marginalized seniors in our community.

The Experience
Social Isolation
Aligned with the new norm of virtual engagement & home-based learning, many of us have experienced a sense of isolation from others due to limited social interaction.
Through our Virtual Ageing Simulation experience, participants will be able to experience how socially isolated seniors are more severely affected due to limited digital connectivity and interaction.
