Championing Young People in a Digital World

Young people today are navigating a distracted, digital world. From hyper-sexualised content to toxic influencers, these online forces permeate into the surrounding popular culture, sometimes causing young people to act out in harmful ways towards themselves and others. Amid these challenges, we also know that youth are capable of living courageously, leading lives of empathy, respect and kindness. But this shift doesn’t just happen. Young people need our help to sensitively unpack the messages they receive about topics like consent, porn culture, stereotypes, relationships and sexuality.

During presentations, we gently confront the elephants in the room to get to the heart of what really matters to young people. These sessions intentionally bring caregivers and community leaders together. With care and clarity, I provide reflective tools we can use to help young people analyse and challenge the culture around them. I unpack what the latest academic research reveals about how the current social and cultural forces are affecting young people’s wellbeing and their relationships.

Grounded in evidence, we then explore practical ways to equip our young people to become more aware of the people and ideas influencing their behaviour and growing identities. We discuss how to instil the importance of not only consent, but of building respectful and empathetic relationships into adulthood.

About Daniel Principe

Daniel is a passionate youth advocate and educator. He champions boys across Australia to challenge culture and aspire to live courageous, respectful and empathetic lives.

He is a board member of the DART Institute, an ambassador for the Women’s Resilience Centre and an ambassador for the national campaign Consent Can’t Wait. He was also recently a nominee for the 2025 NSW Australian of the Year.

Having presented to tens of thousands of young people in every Australian state and territory, Daniel is no stranger to the complex challenges that our distracted digital world presents in adolescence. Toxic influencers. Limiting stereotypes. The objectification of women and girls. Unrealistic expectations fuelled by porn culture. Harmful messages like these bombard today’s youth through social media, advertising, online content and the culture around them.

By partnering with schools and communities, Daniel encourages young people to recognise and resist distorted attitudes towards bodies, relationships and sex. He invites his audiences to instead aspire to healthy relationships built on mutual respect and empathy.
