Intergenerational education and intergenerational integration are one of the most important challenges caused by the aging of Polish society and its consequences. The area of these challenges includes searching for new institutional forms for integration and intergenerational education. The article presents a project of an intergenerational educational house consisting of: intergenerational home, community club, day care centre for the elderly. The planned institution fits in with the ideas of Polish social pedagogy and social work, aimed at releasing social strengths both in the individual, group and local community dimension. The basis of the described institution's activity is the broadly understood education, including intergenerational education, which not only serves the enrichment and further development of its students, but also promotes social solidarity, identifies and uses the potential of individuals, groups and the local environment.
