With the rapid development of an aging society in China

the demand for community-based elderly education has become increasingly significant. The elderly not only require material support but also yearn for spiritual and cultural nourishment. This paper aims to explore innovative models of community-based elderly education in the context of the new era

by analyzing the challenges and opportunities currently facing elderly education. It highlights the importance of updating educational models and proposes pathways for adapting to societal changes

such as self-organized learning within communities

group interaction

and online courses. These innovative approaches aim to improve the quality of life for the elderly

enhance their sense of social participation and belonging

and promote their integration into society

ultimately achieving comprehensive development and lifelong learning for the elderly.
