Uses of Time

It involves offering workshops and training actions to promote reflection and self-regulation in children, adolescents and families regarding the conscious, critical and healthy use of mobile devices.

This action has multiple mentors, and each one develops an independent project, in a total of 10 different activities. This is not a joint action, but rather several services are carrying out (or will carry out) training workshops in parallel.

The purpose is to make use of the Open Centers Network to offer joint actions between different open centers, share material and ensure that it is training and content integrated into the socio-educational work of the open centers.

Subprojects:

1. Offer free workshops and programs on critical and healthy use, risks, digital safety, and mechanisms of self-protection and defense, etc. for children, adolescents, and families:
   1. In the neighborhoods of the Neighborhood Plan (City Promotion)
   2. In environments of special vulnerability (ASPB)
   3. In the network of open centers (IMSS)
   4. In environments of special vulnerability from the GUB (GUB)
   5. In environments of special vulnerability from the services and projects of the Youth Department (Dep. Youth)
   6. In environments of special vulnerability from the programming of the libraries of Barcelona (C. Libraries)
   7. In environments of special vulnerability from the Canòdrom (D. Democratic Innovation)
       
2. Incorporate talks aimed at families on prevention, parental control, and digital well-being for children and adolescents into the Barcelona Activa Cibernàrium Masterclass programs (incorporate presence in facilities in the territory).
    
3. Creation of MOOCs (training and informative content for synchronous online consumption) on digital well-being in the range of activities offered by the Cibernàrium of Barcelona Activa.
