About this workshop:
This workshop explores the role of digital narratives on social media and their use or impact on recovery and healing processes. By integrating expertise from psychology, health, social sciences, and artificial intelligence, we aim to examine how narratives related to mental health, substance use disorder, and sexual abuse shape public discourse and personal experiences. Social media serves as a medium that can facilitate destigmatization and foster community, particularly in areas of mental health and sexual abuse, yet it also poses risks such as cyberbullying, the spread of misinformation, and exposure to harmful content. This workshop is structured around three key themes: Digital Recovery Narratives, Harm Reduction & Healing in the Digital Age, and Shame & Intersectional Stigma. We seek to gather experts to offer a comprehensive perspective on leveraging these narratives for a deeper understanding of individual and collective recovery paths, thereby transforming our approach to digital interaction and support. We welcome both archival and non-archival submissions from a diverse range of disciplines. Furthermore, we are open to technical and non-technical contributions, and we particularly encourage submissions that focus on low-resourced languages and the study of under-represented communities.
