Population aging is a global phenomenon that brings social, economic, and cultural challenges. In this context, intergenerational relationships emerge as an essential component to promote integration, mutual learning, and solidarity among different age groups. This article aims to analyze intergenerational relationships as strategies to strengthen dialogue, care, and social inclusion of older adults. This is a qualitative study based on a literature review of national and international authors and institutional documents, with emphasis on publications from the World Health Organization and the Brazilian Elderly Statute. The results indicate that well-structured intergenerational relationships provide reciprocal benefits, strengthen family and community ties, and help address social isolation and age-related discrimination. It is concluded that investment in intergenerational programs is essential for building a more inclusive society prepared for population aging.
