Dr. Michelle Lim: The Lonely Generation
About
We are delighted to host the launch of Dr. Michelle Lim's The Lonely Generation.It’s not too late to turn back the clock and give our kids the safe, healthy, free childhoods they deserve.
Younger generations are bearing the brunt of social media, big tech and rising costs. Their mental health has gone into freefall with higher rates of anxiety, depression and self-harm. How do we untangle the knots that keep them trapped in feelings of loneliness?
Associate Professor Michelle Lim is Australia’s leading expert on loneliness. She shows us how we got here and what can be done about this public health emergency. Drawing on the latest research in psychology, sociology and neuroscience, The Lonely Generation is an agenda-setting investigation into the profound impacts of loneliness on young people, and how parents and educators can work to form networks and cultures that foster deep, meaningful social connection.
Free, but bookings are essential.
