The Paranimf of the Universitat Jaume I hosted the graduation ceremony of the 2023-2024 academic year of the Senior Citizens' University, a lifelong learning programme of the UJI that celebrates its twenty-fifth anniversary this year. The event was chaired by the Rector of the UJI, Eva Alcón, and was also attended by the Academic Director of the Senior Citizens' University, Inmaculada Rodríguez, the Programme Coordinator, Pilar Escuder, and the teaching staff, around a hundred teachers who have participated in the programme this academic year.

The Rector of the UJI affirmed that the Senior Citizens' University "is a model to be followed, as shown by the figures for this year, which have broken the record for the number of students enrolled, a sign that it offers quality training, participatory and adapted to the needs of the students". Eva Alcón also highlighted the "incalculable social value" of this programme, as well as its importance as a space for opportunities and lifelong learning.

During the event, the diplomas of the Senior University Graduates and Postgraduates and of the Senior Courses in Human and Social Sciences of the different campuses were awarded. In addition, lecturer Vicent Querol, from the Department of Philosophy and Sociology, gave the closing lecture entitled "Digital divide and health: social spaces of inequalities and opportunities".

During this academic year, the Senior Citizens' University had 1,132 students: 774 from the Castelló campus (365 undergraduates and 450 postgraduates) and 358 from the senior classrooms of the different campuses (inland headquarters; dels Ports: Morella - Vilafranca; del Nord: Sant Mateu - Vinaròs and Camp de Morvedre).

A total of 98 teachers have been responsible for providing this training, which is aimed at students who, in addition to broadening their knowledge, want to socialise, stay active after their working life and experience student life on a university campus.

The training programme of the Senior Citizens' University has a similar structure to that of the university degrees at the Universitat Jaume I: a series of core subjects that are common to all groups and others that students choose according to their needs and preferences, with the aim of strengthening their linguistic and technological skills. These are complemented by workshops on a variety of topics, as well as university activities and off-campus cultural and inter-campus excursions. The programme promotes both intergenerational relationships and those that link the whole territory.

It should be noted that part of the daily work carried out during the course and the results of the research projects carried out by the students of the Senior Citizens' University can be consulted in the *Renaixement* magazine, in the Senior Virtual Library and in WikiSenior, in order to promote the intergenerational transfer of knowledge and the dissemination of experience in the digital environment. As part of its research and in the European context of the Erasmus+ programmes, the Senior Citizens' University also participates in projects promoting innovation in pedagogical tools and models for older people, such as the Sen Train project, which was completed this academic year.
