Finding meaning in (non-)retirement
Finally, time – but for what? Retirement opens up new possibilities, and many people wonder how they might make the most of this time. The event ‘Finding Meaning in (Un)retirement. What sort of volunteering would suit me?” on Thursday 19 November 2026, from 4.30 pm to 6.00 pm at SBW Lebenshilfe, Erlenhöfe 4, 07749 Jena, marks the conclusion of the series.
Elisabeth Meitz-Spielmann from the Evangelical Adult Education Centre of Thuringia (EEBT) and Steffen Walther from the City of Jena’s Senior Citizens’ Office will highlight opportunities for voluntary work and invite participants to discover their own interests and strengths. Everyone is welcome – whether you are already involved in voluntary work or are just starting to think about whether and how you might like to get involved.
The event is part of the series ‘Looking Ahead to Retirement – Growing Older Well Prepared and on Your Own Terms’, organised by the City of Jena’s Senior Citizens’ Office and the Evangelical Adult Education Centre of Thuringia (EEBT). It is aimed at all citizens, relatives and volunteers.
Participation is free of charge, and refreshments will be provided.
