Center for Digital Thriving
New Research & Innovation Center at Harvard Graduate School of Education
The Center for Digital Thriving builds on insights from those who know our networked world best: young people. The Center provides knowledge and tools that help young people—and all of us—redefine their relationships with technology. Instead of feeling controlled by or tethered to tech, they envision a world where people have digital agency: the ability to have meaningful choice, intentionality, and control over the way technology fits into our lives.
