Exploring the online experiences of boys and young men
For boys and young men, the internet can be a place where they seek connection, validation and guidance as they explore what it means to be a man today. However, it can also expose them to harmful content, online exploitation and the growing influence of misogynistic ideologies.
This 45-minute webinar will cover the online influences shaping boys and young men and how to empower them to navigate the online world safely and respectfully. You’ll walk away with practical tools to support your child’s wellbeing in a digital world.
Date: Wednesday 30 July
Time: 12:30pm to 1:15pm (AEST)
You’ll learn:
- online influences shaping boys and young men
- how boys engage online, build relationships and how they may be vulnerable to manipulation or exploitation
- the impact of social media, gaming, and influencers on their attitudes, behaviours and sense of identity
- practical tips to build critical thinking, challenge harmful narratives, and create open conversations.
