Tech Shock returns for its 9th season and we invite a range of expert guests to explore the tech landscape post-Online Safety Act – as well as emerging trends and possible harms.

Our first guest this season is director of Youthworks Adrienne Katz. She joins Vicki to unpack the findings from Youthwork’s Annual Cyber Survey, which, having run since 2008, aims to capture just what it’s like for young people growing up and living in the online world. 

Talking points:

• to what extent can we really attribute a rise in mental health issues to tech use?
• what role does gender play in how exploratory, risk-taking or media literate young people are online? 
• what factors influence young people’s digital resilience and recovery from harm?
