The Future of Engagement Across Generations | IFTF Ten-Year Forecast 2025–2035
In this session from The Ten-Year Forecast 2025–2035: Charting Your Future for Social Good, nonprofit leaders discuss how organizations can engage people across generations in ways that are authentic, intentional, and built for long-term connection.
The conversation explores intergenerational work, youth engagement, giving, play, volunteering, digital communities, and what it takes to build belonging and shared ownership across age groups. Speakers reflect on common misconceptions about younger and older generations, the role of trust and listening, and how nonprofits can create stronger pathways for participation in a changing social and technological landscape.
Speakers:
Dylan Hendricks, Director of the Ten-Year Forecast, Institute for the Future
Trent Stamp, CEO, The Eisner Foundation
Lysa Ratliff, CEO, KABOOM!
Asha Curran, CEO, GivingTuesday
Presented as part of BBB Wise Giving Alliance’s 2025 partnership event with the Institute for the Future, GoFundMe, and The Salvation Army.
