In Barbados, the aging population is often viewed as a challenge rather than a treasure trove of wisdom and experience. Yet, these elders are living archives, brimming with stories, skills, and memories that predate the digital age.

While children are adept at navigating social media, they are rarely taught to listen to the voices of those who have lived through the lessons they are still learning.
