cross-generational
Bridging age groups
Cross-generational describes something that spans or connects different age groups or generations: cross-generational friendships, cross-generational trauma.
The term appears in discussions of family dynamics, workplace diversity, and cultural transmission—anything involving interaction or continuity between younger and older people.
The film has cross-generational appeal.
