Digital Fatigue

Partnership-building Activity

1-9 May 2026 | Ankara, Türkiye

"Digital Fatigue" addresses excessive screen time and digital dependency through workshops in Ankara. Aimed at youth workers, it promotes healthy digital habits, mental well-being, and sustainable communication via non-formal learning.

Digital Fatigue is an Erasmus+ training course (KA153) designed to address the growing global challenge of excessive screen time and digital dependency. Taking place in Ankara, Türkiye, from May 1–9, 2026, the project brings together participants to explore the mental and physical impacts of constant connectivity.

Objectives and Methodology

The project aims to raise awareness about "crowded loneliness" and "brain rot" by promoting healthier, more balanced digital habits. Through non-formal learning methods, the activity focuses on:

  • Conducting awareness workshops and social activities to foster meaningful real-life communication.

  • Are open to sharing experiences and good practices in a multicultural environment.
