Together, we can make the internet a healthier place for everyone, especially young people.

The Inspired Internet Pledge is a community of companies and nonprofits working together to build a healthier internet for young people.

Companies working to build healthier products for young people are often doing so in isolation. The nonprofits and researchers closest to youth wellbeing issues often lack a direct line to the companies making product decisions. The Inspired Internet Pledge exists to close those gaps.

Signatories are tech and media companies, advertisers, AI developers, and others who play a meaningful role in the digital ecosystem. Advisors are nonprofits, research organizations, and advocacy groups that bring expertise in youth wellbeing, digital safety, and media literacy. Convened by the Digital Wellness Lab, we share research, center the voices of young people, and learn from one another in the shared belief that a healthier internet for young people is something we build together.

Principle 1

Tune for emotional wellbeing

We commit to understanding which actions and content correlate with wellbeing outcomes. We will use this to inform how we build and evolve products, services, policies, and advertising that support healthier experiences on and offline.

Principle 2

Listen to and act on insights from people who have experienced harm online

We commit to listening to and learning from those who have experienced harm online and the experts who support these communities, to inform our business.

Principle 3

Share lessons collaboratively

We commit to sharing best practices, key research findings, and creative solutions to make the internet a healthier place for everyone — especially young people.
