ACTIVITIES
Being Spaces 90 minute 'Being-not-Doing' sessions; Being Spaces is a 90min collective workshop, open to everyone. It is an opportunity to explore what it's like not to have to DO anything, but just BE. With gentle, pressure-free activities, with no set targets or goals, we can slow down, feel, and connect differently. No performance. No prerequisites. Just an invitation to fully inhabit the present moment, to create space through being — together. Being Spaces is created by Katalin Szalay. | Film screening & panel discussion, "Can't Look Away" Followed by Kids Unplugged panel discussion Can't Look Away is a gripping documentary that exposes the dark side of social media and its devastating impact on young users. Directors Matthew O'Neill and Perri Peltz take viewers inside the high-stakes legal battle to hold tech companies accountable for the harm caused by their negligence and dangerous algorithms. Based on investigative reporting by Bloomberg News' Olivia Carville, the film follows the Social Media Victims Law Center fighting for justice for families whose children suffered tragic consequences linked to social media use. As families seek justice, Can't Look Away underscores the urgent need for industry reform and serves as both a wake-up call about the dangers of social media-- and a call to action to protect future generations. | Kids Unplugged is a new Belgian movement of parents who want to protect children from the negative impacts of smartphone use and social media. Their aim is to raise awareness among all parents of the associated risks, empower parents and educators to take action, and campaign for new laws to increase the minimum age for use of social media. The KidsUnplugged website is currently available in Dutch with French and English versions to be announced in the coming weeks. www.kidsunplugged.be |
