Digital Wellbeing

Co-led by colleagues in the College of Arts and Law Incubator for Global Communications, ‘Imagining Wellbeing’ theme in Centre for Urban Wellbeing, Mental Health Humanities Researcher Network, and Centre for Digital Cultures.

Overview

Digital infrastructures are increasingly embedded in daily life, organising our movements and interactions through cities, communities, workplaces, and social networks.

This hybrid workshop invites people from a range of contexts to explore effects of the digital on physical and psychological wellbeing, including experiences of mental health, bodily comfort, workplace inclusion, community belonging and creative practice.
