Alongside its countless beneficial and valuable innovations, the digital revolution has brought with it serious consequences. Pressure is now mounting to mitigate these unintended consequences of tech: can we do something before it is too late?

We hear from Dr Indra Joshi, Claire Levens, Barry Panayi, Umesh Pandya, and Rachel Neaman as they discuss how we can harness the opportunities technology creates to improve well-being, resilience and personal responsibility.
