In the digital age, technological well-being has become a shared challenge for families, educators, and communities. It’s not just about limiting screen time, but about learning to coexist with technology in a healthy, critical, and conscious way.
An inspiring example comes from Beniel (Region of Murcia), where a local project brought together parents and students to promote responsible digital habits. The initiative, driven by schools and family associations, is built on three pillars:
1. Joint Training
Workshops were organized where parents and children learned together about:
Personvern og sikkerhet på nettet.
How to identify algorithmic bias and fake news.
Strategies to balance digital time with physical and social activities.
2. Practical Tools
Visual guides and family apps were created to help:
Set agreements on device use.
Configure parental controls without invading autonomy.
Encourage conversations about what is consumed on social media.
3. Dialogue Spaces
Beyond technology, the project opened spaces to talk about emotions, relationships, and how digital life impacts family dynamics. This strengthened trust and intergenerational communication.
Why is this relevant?
Because it shows that digital well-being is not about prohibition, but about education and guidance. When parents and children learn together, technology stops being a barrier and becomes an opportunity for growth.
