A Worldwide U3A Conference for a truly worldwide movement 8th 9th and 10th of February 2010 The purpose of this website is to publicise and to provide administrative details for the World U3A Conference, to be held during 8th 9th and 10th of February 2010. The University of the Third Age is a fast-growing movement and most previous World Congresses have been held in Europe and have been Europe-centric. All that is now changing; with U3A Councils now active in Singapore, India, Nepal, Bangladesh, China, it is becoming clear that Asia and the Pacific rim countries (which include Australia and New Zealand) will become important new centres for our U3A movement. Our theme, Lifelong Learning and Aging with Dignity, will explore our mission with a new sense of purpose, and mobilise elderly as a resource to strengthen communities and families and to enhance social cohesion.

Concerted efforts of the people have propelled India into one of the technologically advanced nations. However, large parts of rural India still struggle for survival due to poor infra-structure for education and training for skills. Most of the teaching and research institutes are located in urban areas. An innovative and high-quality Rural University was therefore conceived and established at Chitrakoot, located on the bank of the Holy River Mandakini, away from noisy city life amongst a serene and beautiful landscape. Our University welcomes you. Professor
Gyanendra Singh
