The collective team of Martyna Eron from Wellington College, Gráinne Camplisson from St. Louise’s College, Ryan Bell from Hazelwood Integrated College and Jess Bell from Active Communities Network were the winners, having impressed the judges with their novel concept. They will now have the opportunity to undertake a VIP journey to Dublin to meet with some of the world’s biggest companies in the tech sector. David Ibsen, Executive Director, Counter Extremism Project, said: “Congratulations to Martyna, Gráinne, Ryan and Jess. Their pitch was truly inspirational and I hope to see it come to fruition someday! Mental health is such an important part of our young peoples’ wellbeing and it is refreshing to see these teenagers take it seriously. “Technology has been successful at connecting people but unfortunately, it is also a medium that can be misused to spread hate and violence. If we really want to empower young people in a positive manner, we need to make sure they can do so in a secure environment. Through our work identifying and flagging harmful content online and Digital DNA’s work engaging communities, I believe this can be achieved.
