What is the Global Day of Unplugging 2024?
When the (formerly National) Global Day of Unplugging awareness campaign started in 2009, very little academic and clinical research had been conducted about the long term impact of smartphone use on mental health. Recognizing the need for awareness of what might become a bigger problem, the Jewish arts and culture non-profit Reboot launched in partnership with Sabbath Manifesto, a project designed to slow down lives in an increasingly hectic world. What was once a small group of people gathering for tech-free Shabbat dinners turned into thousands of worldwide community partners organizing live unplugged events, year after year.
Enter Unplug Collaborative, the nonprofit organization that has been keeping the awareness campaign thriving since March 2020 (what a year!)
For the 15th year in a row, from sundown to sundown March 1st - 2nd, 2024, thousands of people around the world will be consciously stepping away from technology to celebrate Global Day of Unplugging.
