ABSTRACT
Initial needs assessment can be useful for obtaining information about the issues that should be addressed in newly launched intergenerational centers. However, there are few examples of how such studies should be conducted. This paper shares insights and lessons learned during a needs assessment study conducted nine months after the inauguration of an intergenerational shared site in Spain. In addition to presenting the needs identified, such as accurate and complete job descriptions, the paper offers methodological recommendations to practitioners embarking upon a similar needs study. The value of needs assessment as an educational endeavor is also highlighted.

代际中心的初始需求评估。西班牙案例的反思
摘要
初始需求评估有助于获取有关新成立的代际中心应解决的问题的信息。然而,关于如何进行此类研究的例子很少。本文分享了在西班牙代际共享站点落成九个月后进行的需求评估研究中获得的见解和经验教训。除了呈现确定的需求(例如准确和完整的工作描述)之外,该论文还为着手进行类似需求研究的从业者提供了方法论建议。还强调了需求评估作为教育工作的价值。
