DUKE AND DUCHESS OF SUSSEX CONVENE SESSION ON DIGITAL WORLD

Creating online communities free of danger and misinformation is crucial in building a better world, the Duchess of Sussex told an online audience during a special Time100 Talks episode she curated with her husband, Prince Harry.

“This isn’t just a tech problem. This isn’t solely a mental health or emotional well-being problem. This is a human problem. And what’s happening to all of us online is affecting us deeply offline,” Meghan said in opening the two-hour session that gathered academics, experts in misinformation, advocates for teens and the marginalized, journalists and others.

Since the start of 2020, after the two left the U.K., they’ve been spending quality time with son Archie at their California home and also educating themselves on issues swirling in the digital space. They’ve made new friends among those working to make that space better, both said.
