A community center for senior citizens in Guwahati fostering engagement and respect.

The Centre for Senior Citizens of Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, Guwahati Kendra, operates from its Ulubari premises in Guwahati to foster a society where senior citizens are respected, valued, and provided opportunities to remain actively engaged in community life. The Kendra brings together senior members, students, distinguished personalities, and the broader community to ensure continued social, cultural, and intellectual engagement. Through events such as World Senior Citizen Day celebrations, the centre encourages intergenerational participation, featuring cultural programmes with students from the Kendra's Kala Kendra alongside senior members. These gatherings highlight the significant contributions of seniors to families and society, promoting the perspective that ageing is a stage of life enriched by experience, knowledge, and wisdom rather than dependency. Supported by figures including its Secretary and Treasurer, the Guwahati Kendra provides a welcoming space for older adults in the region to connect, share their wisdom, and maintain an active role in society.
