GoodforMEdia Maker Day: The Future of Social Media: By Youth, for Youth

  • allcove San Mateo 2600 S El Camino Real Suite 300 San Mateo, CA 94403 United States (map)

This special event invites young people in the Bay Area ages 13 - 22 to come together and share about the way they navigate the online world. During a time where 95% of teens have smartphones, and 35% of us use 1 in 5 top social media apps constantly, our youth advisors have identified the need for youth to have access to supportive spaces where they can figure out healthy ways to use these platforms. Inspired by this new reality, we curated this event to center young people's lived experiences online and in the real world, so that there is a future where we CAN walk away from our phones feeling inspired and motivated, not burned out.


We want to learn directly from young people by engaging in testimony-sharing spaces and a variety of other stations & activities related to social media and youth wellbeing. The perspectives, experiences, and ideas we hear will be collected and shared out on our platforms so that other teens can learn from the tips, strategies, and experiences provided directly by young people.
