Club excursions afford unique learning experiences for senior black women which redefine roles for older township women and reinforce positive intergenerational relationships. Personal accounts of the highlights of excursions out of townships obtained from over 120 female club members in focus group interviews contrast sharply with their daily experience of the depressed quality of life in the townships. Evidence suggests that participation in senior excursions, which are commonly viewed as a luxury in developing contexts, enhances the social prestige of older women in the community. From a human resources development viewpoint, it is argued that excursions which inspire self-confidence and widen horizons may assist the older generation to make a greater contribution to shaping community life in post-apartheid South Africa.
俱乐部短途旅行能为老年黑人女性提供独特的学习体验，这种体验重新定义了老年乡镇女性的角色，并加强了积极的代际关系。在焦点小组访谈中，从120多名女性俱乐部成员那里获得的关于出城短途旅行亮点的个人叙述，与她们在乡镇日常生活中沮丧的生活质量形成了鲜明对比。有证据表明，参与老年短途旅行（在发展中环境中通常被视为一种奢侈）提高了老年女性在社区中的社会声望。从人力资源开发的角度来看，有人认为，能够激发自信和拓宽视野的短途旅行可能有助于老一辈人在塑造后种族隔离时代南非的社区生活中做出更大贡献。
