Open remote lectures on Thursdays
Every Thursday we regularly invite seniors to join remotely on the Zoom platform to listen to lecturers' talks on various topics – from health to culture and computer literacy. The lectures are interactive: participants can ask questions, share their own experience, and take part in discussions. After the lecture, time is set aside for informal socialising, which strengthens community spirit and allows new social connections to form.
What it sets out to do
The goal of the Thursday lectures is to give seniors useful knowledge, encourage their activity, and strengthen social engagement.

What seems to make it work
Here are the key elements that make the Thursday lectures effective in reducing loneliness:
• Warm, communicative and engaging lecturers and organisers
• The ability to notice lonelier participants and involve them in activities
• A moderator who encourages discussion and sharing of experience
• Various lecturers who attract people with different interests
• Space for informal conversation before and after the lecture
• Regularity, which allows acquaintances and connections to form
• Interactive lectures (questions, discussions, short exercises)
• Evaluation of participants' experience and opinions
• The opportunity to actively participate, not just listen
• Regularly held lectures (same time and remote format, allowing people to join from anywhere)
• A sense of familiarity and something to look forward to
• Over time, building a community rather than one-off meetings
What gets in the way
An internet connection and at least a minimal ability to use a computer are important; the person joining must have an email address, otherwise we cannot reach them.
How it is funded
Voluntary activity – lecturers take part unpaid; support from individuals
Moving it somewhere else
Definitely yes, you need enthusiasts who see the point in it.

Kiekvieną ketvirtadienį reguliariai kviečiame jungtis senjorus nuotoliu zoom platformoje klausytis lektorių pranešimų įvairiomis temomis – nuo sveikatos iki kultūros, kompiuterinio raštingumo. Paskaitos yra interaktyvios: dalyviai gali užduoti klausimus, dalintis savo patirtimi ir įsitraukti į diskusijas. Po paskaitos skiriamas laikas neformaliam bendravimui, kuris stiprina bendruomeniškumą ir leidžia užmegzti naujus socialinius ryšius.
What it sets out to do
Ketvirtadienio paskaitų tikslas – suteikti senjorams naudingų žinių, skatinti jų aktyvumą ir stiprinti socialinį įsitraukimą.

What seems to make it work
Štai pagrindiniai elementai, kurie daro ketvirtadienio paskaitas veiksmingas mažinant vienišumą:
• Šilti, bendraujantys ir įtraukiantys lektoriai bei organizatoriai
• Gebėjimas pastebėti vienišesnius dalyvius ir juos įtraukti į veiklas
• Moderatorius, skatinantis diskusijas ir dalijimąsi patirtimi
• Įvairūs lektoriai, kurie pritraukia skirtingus interesus turinčius žmones
• Erdvės neformaliam pokalbiui prieš ir po paskaitos
• Reguliarumas, leidžiantis formuotis pažintims ir ryšiams
• Interaktyvios paskaitos (klausimai, diskusijos, trumpi pratimai)
• Dalyvių patirties ir nuomonės įvertinimas
• Galimybė aktyviai dalyvauti, o ne tik klausytis
• Reguliariai vykstančios paskaitos (tas pats laikas ir nuotinis formatas , leidžiantis prisijungti iš bet kurios vietos)
• Pažįstamumo jausmas ir laukimo momentas
• Ilgainiui kuriama bendruomenė, o ne pavieniai susitikimai
What gets in the way
Svarbu interneto ryšys ir gebėjimas naudotis kompiuteriu nors minimaliai, besijungiantis žmogus turi turėti elektroninio pašto adresą, kitaip mes jo nepasiekiame.
How it is funded
Savanoriška veikla – lektoriai jungiasi neatlygintinai, fizinių asmenų parama
Moving it somewhere else
Tikrai taip, reikia turėti entuziastų, kurie matytų prasmę.
