SUMMARY:Gen Z & Gen Alpha in a Digital World
DESCRIPTION:Youth Engagement Project presents: \nIN PERSON TRAINING GEN Z & COMMUNITY TRAINING \nGen Z & Gen Alpha in a Digital World \nYoung people today are shaped by technology\, social media\, and constant connectivity. This session \nexplores how online culture impacts their identity\, communication\, and wellbeing and how as adults \nwe can respond with strategies that foster autonomy\, competence\, and relatedness – elements that \nunderpin the Self Determination Theory and engagement. \n\nTrauma-Informed Practice in the Digital Age \nOnline experiences – cyberbullying\, global crises\, digital overwhelm – can activate protective \nresponses in young people. This session equips participants with trauma-informed strategies to \ncreate safe\, supportive spaces for sensitive conversations without harm. \n\nBehaviour\, Boundaries & Belonging \nDigital pressures influence how Gen Z and Alpha show up in classrooms and communities. This \nsession explores relational approaches to behaviour that balance clear expectations with empathy\, \nbelonging\, and re-engagement. Through a Trauma Informed lens we talk about the PACE model and \nhow to manage behaviours in an inclusive and empathetic manner to ensure belonging and safety. \n\nLearning Outcomes \n\nParticipants will: \n\nUnderstand how technology and social media shape young people’s worldview.\nApply practical strategies to foster trust\, safety\, and connection.\nRecognise and respond to trauma linked to digital experiences.\nNavigate difficult conversations with empathy and accountability.\nImplement behaviour practices that balance boundaries with belonging.\n\n\nDetails: \nDate: 14 April 2026 \nTime: 10am – 12pm \nLocation: Bryan Brown Theatre\, CR 2 80 Rickard Road\, Bankstown \nRegister: CLICK HERE \nPassword: YouthSector \n\nFurther information please reach out. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n‑‑ \n\n\n​​​​ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMichelle O’Connor \n\n\n ‑ \n\n\nYouth Development Officer \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nT 02 9707 5587 \n\n\n\n\n\nM 0407718962 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nE Michelle.OConnor@cbcity.nsw.gov.au \n\n\n\n\nwww.cbcity.nsw.gov.au
