Main Objectives:
Understanding the impact of technology on body and mind.
Raising participants' awareness of how app algorithms trigger dopamine loops and how excessive smartphone use affects physical health (e.g., "text neck", sensory overload, closed body posture).
Building digital agency.
Empowering young people to take back control over their technology use, ensuring that reaching for their "glowing rectangles" is a conscious choice rather than an automatic habit or addiction.
Experiencing digital detox and mindfulness. Promoting offline tools (such as the outdoor Forest Power Cards “Forest Meditations”) to build authentic peer connections, manage stress, and stay grounded in the "here and now" away from screens.
Shaping conscious creators. Transforming participants from passive content consumers into active creators who can intentionally use visual tools (photography, video, social media) to break cultural barriers, share positive narratives, and promote social inclusion.
