Lecture on the influence of social media on body image – with tips for parents and young people. Practical insights and advisory services on the topics of well-being and self-image.
Social media is increasingly shaping how young people perceive their bodies. Between seemingly perfect selfies and constantly changing beauty ideals, there is often pressure to conform to certain standards. This lecture and the subsequent discussion explore the role of likes, filters, and comparisons, and how parents, young people, and interested individuals can promote a self-determined approach to their own bodies.
Alexandra Kremer and Lilith Knauf, experts from the myBody project, combine insights from workshops and coaching with background knowledge. They provide practical suggestions for everyday life and present support services offered by aks on topics such as overweight, nutrition, and health. Alongside this, a Photovoice exhibition showcases images and thoughts from young people involved in the project, offering authentic insights into their perspectives on bodies, well-being, and societal expectations.
