At an age when Professor Anneke Fitzgerald says she should be starting to think of retirement, she's taken on a passion project (and the long and demanding hours that go with it), that she hopes will change the lives of young and old. Anneke is the Founder and Chair of the Australian Institute for Intergenerational Practice, an organisation that is leading the way in creating meaningful relationships between children and elderly people. She's also one of the people behind the scenes of the popular ABC series 'Old People's Home for 4 year olds'. Anneke believes the work of the Institute could influence big change in our communities.
