The Psychology of Wellbeing and Our Lives On Social Media
New

Mon 28 Jun 2021

Description

How can the science of wellbeing help us better understand the role digital technology plays in our everyday lives? We have never spent more time on screens – for work, for leisure, and everything in between – than we do now. In what ways can we more fully understand how our social media use can affect our relation to other people, to the rest of the world, and how we feel about ourselves? This Festival of Wellbeing event will be interactive and there will be ample time for questions.

About The Speakers: Professor Felicia Huppert is internationally renowned for her work on the science of well-being and the promotion of human flourishing. She is Honorary Professor at The University of Sydney, Fellow of the British Psychological Society, and Founding Director of the Well-being Institute at the University of Cambridge. Tyler Shores is the Manager of the University of Cambridge ThinkLab programme, and also researches digital distractions, social media, and the role of digital technology in our everyday lives. Tyler will be posting links and questions leading up the event at: https://twitter.com/tylershores
