Summary/Abstract: Our article formalizes data of the European project Connecting generations where we participated with our non - formal education experience related to the Paideea clubs. Its European stakes lies in valuing the intergenerational culture and higher education involvement in civil society based on the social-cultural concepts of participation and reification. Our anthropo-pedagogical concept Club Paideea reiterates the traditional learning space and it was generated by our students grouped in the Students Forum of Faculty of Education Dimitrie Cantemir Christian University. Paideea Clubs are such a project to build a local learning community of parents grouped around schools and kindergartens, and also to join public and private sector in order to participate in the building of local social cohesion for Romanian society. This Agora from whose ethical, spiritual and cultural values are transferred from one generation to another one participates as part of a fluid human memory.
