It examined how senior Chinese immigrants learned intergenerationally in a project initiated by the Chinese Senior Association for Chinese immigrants in Canada during the pandemic. Intergenerational learning is argued to be an ĕective pathway for active aging (WHO, 2002) to enhance senior immigrants’civic engagement, social security, health, and well-being. Using active aging as an analytical framework, interview data from 15 senior Chinese immigrants and two project organisers were examined. The results showed that online intergenerational learning, as a practice of active learning, promoted (a) knowledge sharing,(b) social and cultural communication, and (c) health and well-being.  \nIntergenerational learning for active aging amid the pandemic: 35 Chinese immigrant seniors’ online learning in Canada  \nKeywords: aging, adult education, intergenerational learning, senior Chinese immigrants, online learning, CO9I'-1􀀜  \nIntroduction  \n7KH &29,'􀀐􀀔􀀜 SDQGHPLF JUHDWO\\ D̆HFWHG WKH &DQDGLDQ LPPLJUDQW community causing racial inequalities, border closures, travel restrictions, service cancellations and delays, and mental health problems (Clark et al., 2020).

WHO (2002) also proposed active aging as a policy framework that requires action based on three basic pillars: health, participation, and security. Following WHO, we view active aging as a framework that acknowledges seniors’ experiences and treats seniors as active participants in society. We suggest that this concept could be utilized in studies of active aging as a theoretical framework. We highlight active aging as a new paradigm of aging, which no longer views older adults as OLYLQJ SDVVLYHO\\ EXW DV DFWLYH SOD\\HUV LQ VRFLHW\\ 􀀋=KX 􀀉 =KDQJ􀀏 􀀕􀀓􀀔􀀜􀀌􀀑 Based on an intergenerational learning program initiated by the Chinese Senior Association for Immigrants in the Greater Toronto Area, Canada, this study examined how senior immigrants practised intergenerational  \n36 Yidan Zhu and Weiguo Zhang  \nlearning with youth during the COVID-19 pandemic through a variety of online teaching and learning activities, including English language learning.
