Reading: Mental Training in an Age of Overload

15:00 – 16:00 LUXOR STAGE

We live in a world where a constant battle is being fought for our attention. Notifications, social media, and an endless stream of news, videos, and recommendations. Never before have we had such easy access to so much information, yet we are increasingly talking about fatigue, overload, and an inability to focus.

How can we preserve our capacity for critical thinking in such an environment? And can we still hear one another, or even ourselves, amid all the noise?

What happens in our brains when we read? What role do stories play in the development of language, imagination, and empathy? And why are they important not only for children, but also for adults trying to navigate an increasingly complex world?
