Learning in Motion: Connecting with Seniors for Inclusive Emergency Preparedness

Semester Two, Module One Learning in Motion: Connecting with Seniors for Inclusive Emergency Preparedness In the event of an emergency or large-scale disaster, seniors and people with disabilities can become among the most vulnerable – if they are not prepared. Inclusive Emergency Preparedness is part of the Connect4Life Model of life-long learning and skills development. This special module of Learning in Motion was recorded live as part of a workshop and presentation to nearly 70 seniors on Tuesday June 23, 2026. The event was hosted by Member of Provincial Parliament David Smith for Scarborough Centre, and was held at Branch Number 617 of the Royal Canadian Legion on Warden Avenue in Scarborough. The music you hear, for a few seconds at the beginning and the end of this learning module, was performed live by the Ulster Accordion Band of the Legion Branch, several members of whom are in their mid-nineties. Learning in Motion is an exclusive feature of The Connect4Life Learning Channel. The Connect4Life Learning Channel is one of three podcast channels owned and operated by the Connect4Life Media Network.
