Generation Z – those born since the late 1990s – are the first generation never to know the world without the internet: but what do we really know about them?

Are the stereotypes about “snowflakes”, activists, and casualties of social media just fuel for the culture wars or is there some truth here? And are generational studies divisive or worthwhile in helping us to understand society?

Join us at the Policy Institute on 25 January for Gen Z debated. The session will draw on Gen Z, Explained: The Art of Living in a Digital Age, by Linda Woodhead, Roberta Katz, Sarah Ogilvie, and Jane Shaw and Bobby Duffy’s The Generation Divide: Why We Can't Agree and Why We Should.
