Abstract: Karin Boode MBA is Strategic Youth Policy Advisor and working at the National Association of Regional Public Health Services Netherlands. Leading on from the presentation on the harms of social media and smartphones, Karin will present examples of policies that have been successful in reducing the health impacts on youngsters. She will focus on the role of schools in addressing this problem, and how public health organisations can effectively disseminate guidance to teachers and parents in limiting screen time and improving self-regulating behaviours of children and adolescents to minimise screen and smartphone addiction.
