@promiseproject.bsky.social
An international research initiative to improve social media policies for youth well-being
Welcome to Bluesky, @evaziegltrum.bsky.social 👋
My first ever BlueSky post... no pressure ;)
I want to use the end of the year to share that we wrapped up our @promiseproject.bsky.social kick-off in festive Nuremberg — a great mix of teamwork, planning, inspiration, and a lot of great work on WP1 and WP2.
Excited for what’s ahead in 2025. 🎄✨
