Development officer Merlynne Francique explained: "Our aim is to work with six local authority and voluntary and community sector organisations to develop different models of intergenerational work focusing on skill share, health, heritage and legacy and arts-based initiatives.
"The work will test out the scope and limitations of intergenerational work and develop evidence of what works and why."
She added: "It will also look at the barriers and the challenges presented by intergenerational work and what needs to be in place to secure positive outcomes for young people and others."
The work will begin in September.
