Communication is a powerful tool and information is its fuel. Any efforts and consolidated resources to empower people to effectively communicate is a noble course.

As aging because an important phase in the society, there is a call for creating an invironment that brings all persons in the society under one family where communication is effective and information flows in a way that builds a sense of belonging.

This forum and its supporting elements of training and education using technology is one of the superb ways to develop a sense belonging among seniors in the society.

This is not only impressive but also rewarding!
