Parent Webinar: What teens really say about being online
Join Karla Sanders as she shares insights from her recent roadshow with almost 200 rangatahi around the motu, facilitating youth workshops to better understand what young people are doing online.
Too often, there is an assumption that all teens are using the same platforms in the same ways, or that their experiences are predictable based on gender or age. The roadshow was designed to test this and to surface a more complex and accurate picture of how young people actually spend their time online.
Karla will share key findings from the roadshow, and there will be time for Q&A.
