Third and final day of the #HealthystartTRM! We start with @candiceodgers.bsky.social argueing that we are stuck in how we study and see adolescents and their technology use - and that now is the time to better understand and support them in the digital age.

On the second day we continued with inspiring science talks on prosocial behavior and trust by @suzannevdgroep.bsky.social and Lydia Krabbendam. Then Martijn from youth organization Lieve Mark reflected on their findings with some examples of their student-led studies #HealthyStartTRM

Day 2 of the #HealthystartTRM! Co-organizer @suzannevdgroep.bsky.social kicks off the first session of the day: How do adolescents balance outcomes for self and others? What skills can help them achieve this balance? And what are mechanisme through which adolescents can become change makers?

We started the day with an inspiring talk by Ron Dahl on adolescence as a pivotal inflection point and a cross-species perspective on adolescence #HealthyStartTRM @rondahl.bsky.social

I'm attending the Healthy Start Transformative research meeting organized by @ecrone.bsky.social @suzannevdgroep.bsky.social @rondahl.bsky.social Lysanne te Brinke & Judith vd Wetering, to discuss adolescence as a window of opportunity for societal contribution. Exciting days ahead! #HealthyStartTRM

Can adolescents be gamechangers for 21st century challenges, like polarization, climate change and loneliness?

Over the next few days, we will explore this question with scientists from various disciplines during the Healthy Start transformative research meeting in Delft.
