Toronto, Canada
Welcome to our Unplugged Village®
Since 2009, hundreds of thousands of Global (formerly National) Day of Unplugging participants have joined the movement to elevate human connection over digital engagement in their cities across the globe.
Welcome to Toronto’s Unplugged Village - led by Offline.now. I’m Eli, and I’m excited to help grow a local community of people who want more presence, more connection, and a healthier relationship with our screens.
Our vision is that the Toronto Village will be a year-round hub with a blend of gatherings that are small and simple, to bigger community moments - all are welcome. If you want to help, or if you’d like to host a gathering for Global Day of Unplugging (in March) or throughout the year, reach out!
Check out the Offline Now website HERE. You can also email Eli eli@offline.now or book time with him on his Calendly - https://calendly.com/elisinger
As part of its national Screen Break initiative, Rogers Communications is offering free Unplug and Play skating events during March Break in Vancouver, Toronto, and Edmonton. These events are designed to encourage teens, tweens, and families to put devices down, get active, and build a more balanced relationship with screens.
