CONNECTING FUTURE AND DIGITAL WELLBEING

DIGITAL WELLBEING OF YOUTH

In honor of José Antonio's vision, we decided to put the perspective of technological humanism at the center of our value proposition, giving young people a PROTAGONIST role, and not just a recipient one, betting on their talent and potential.

The José Antonio Llorente Foundation connects young people from Europe, the United States, and Latin America who seek to generate a positive and social impact, especially in the use of technology, to build a more humane world. 

We work from our experience in Communication, Creativity, and Influence, and through the talent and expertise of LLYC volunteers. 

We want new generations to lead their relationship with Artificial Intelligence and social networks with judgment, ethics, and emotional health. Therefore, we have committed to working on four action axes:

We want a better society. And we’re convinced that a better society can be built with communication that is honest, intelligent, effective, and innovative.

CRITICAL THINKING

WE CONNECT YOUTH to act against ethical challenges and misinformation in the digital environment. 

We unite this talent with our experience in strategic communication so that they are the ones who lead the construction of a more democratic, informed, and free society; transforming technology into a tool for human understanding and decision-making.

MENTAL HEALTH IN CONNECTED ENVIRONMENTS

WE CONNECT YOUTH to create spaces for reflection and lead the change towards a healthy digital culture. 

In the face of hyperconnectivity and overexposure, we connect young talent with LLYC experts and volunteers to promote a conscious and humane use of technology, ensuring that the digital environment is an engine for emotional wellbeing and never an obstacle to personal development.

INCLUSION ON THE WEB

WE CONNECT YOUTH to raise awareness about safety and respect on social networks. 

We transform virtual environments into spaces of understanding where plurality is our greatest strength. We work so that technology is, above all, an inclusive bridge that protects the dignity of every person.

DIGITAL LITERACY

WE CONNECT YOUTH to bridge the gap of opportunities.

We drive a shared learning network, providing the technological skills necessary to lead the employment of the future. Our goal is to transform education into a social mobility tool that allows every young person to build their own path in a more humane digital economy.

Meetings "Transformative Conversations"

Three meetings between the social, business, and government sectors for the exchange of ideas and awareness of the reality lived by adolescents in Spain and the need to generate healthy digital environments for youth. 

We collaborated with organizations such as UNICEF, Plan International, Cyber-Guardians, Anar Foundation, and Fernando Pombo Foundation, who shared their best practices and experience. Furthermore, young people participated in the conversation as protagonists on the panel.

“In the last two decades, mental health illnesses in young people have increased by 300%. Therefore, addressing the relationship of youth with technology, and even more so in this AI era that is advancing at a breakneck speed, is an inescapable priority.”
