Spring Special Episode 3: Haroon Chowdry: ‘Levelling the Playing Field’
This week in our special episodes examining the arguments for and against the social media ban, Vicki speaks to Haroon Chowdry, Chief Executive of the Centre for Young Lives. The Centre for Young Lives was set up by Baroness Anne Longfield, former Children’s Commissioner for England, and uses research, evidence, advocacy, public affairs and system change to improve outcomes for children and families. Being in favour of the preventative measures proposed by the government consultation, Haroon discusses why he thinks restrictions are necessary as well as why and how to put the onus on tech companies. Talking points: Why should we take a Public Health approach to social media’s impact on children?Is it just semantics to try and change the language we use in this debate - from ban to minimum age restriction?Are we proposing a blanket ban, or a partial ban? And what’s the difference?Tech Shock is a Parent Zone production. Follow Parent Zone on social media for all the latest on our work on helping families to thrive in the digital age.
