In early December, 2023, the Digital Wellness Lab, with support from Pinterest, convened approximately 60 experts from across different disciplines — including technology, media, education, mental health, government/regulation, and advocacy — to discuss the various systems and contextual factors that provide children with the tools to experience tech and media in balanced and healthy ways. The goal of the convening was to begin defining what it means to be “digitally well” at each age and stage of youth development (i.e., birth to age 24).
This Tune for Wellbeing event, part of our Inspired Internet Pledge efforts, was the first of several convenings designed to dive more deeply into what is needed to ensure young people can build and maintain digital wellbeing across the developmental trajectory.
