Seniors Cookery

So far, the Senior’s Cookery has worked with seniors and youth from 13 different cultural backgrounds, including: 

  • Russian
  • Venezuelan
  • Colombian
  • Nigerian
  • Cameroonian
  • Ivorian
  • Iraqi
  • Syrian
  • Egyptian
  • Canadian
  • Pakistani
  • Canadian Indigenous

The Seniors Cookery project officially launched in August 2022 and has been working with local seniors from various cultural backgrounds with local youth – typically grandchildren of the senior – to curate cooking videos for the local community.

This project aims to create understanding between cultures and bridge intergenerational gaps while also sharing cultural stories of the seniors and youth participating in the project. 

Please stay tuned as the completed videos will be released on both MCA’s Facebook and YouTube channels, followed by a cookbook presenting all of the dishes made during the course of the project.

The Multicultural Association of Wood Buffalo would like to thank all of the participants who have submitted their recipes to this official Multicultural Seniors Cookery Recipe Book.
