Intergenerational equity is the practice of treating everyone fairly and justly regardless of age, with special consideration to the structural factors that privilege some age groups over others. At Everyday Democracy, we value intergenerational equity. We recognize that people of all ages can be and deserve to be engaged. Engagement may look different depending on age, but we need everyone, working together across the generations, if we are going to achieve sustainable community change.
