Join us for the first session of our Spring webinar series, where a range of diverse experts and speakers will explore how digital media and technology influence mental health. Topics include the impact on comparison, attention span, validation-seeking behaviour, self-esteem, body image, cyberbullying, and social media addiction. This session will provide strategies for fostering healthy relationships with digital media and discuss how digital literacy can help prevent challenges such as anxiety, depression, and FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). The audience will also have the opportunity to engage in discussions and share insights during the event.
