Do you really know?

[FRIENDSHIP DAY] What is Generation Z?

25 Jul 2022

Description

On the occasion of World Friendship Day on 30 July, Do You Really Know puts the spotlight on this feeling that everyone knows. In the age of social networks, what form does friendship take today? What are the new ways to compose together? Discover these concepts, practices and initiatives that make up today's friendship! What is Generation Z? The term Generation Z refers to people born from around the end of the 1990s onwards. Like all generations, the group has its own supposed defining characteristics. Members of Generation Z are often labelled as hyper-digital, super idealist and even depressed. But what’s the scientific basis for all of this? The term Generation Z originated in 2012 from an online contest organised by the daily newspaper USA Today. OK, so it’s not the most original name, with Generation Z following on directly from Generation Y, also known as the millennials. They in turn followed on from Generation X. So let’s say I was born in 96, am I X, Y or Z? Isn’t it a bit weird to make such a sweeping generalisation about tens of millions of people? If you look at an 18 year old in the USA and another in Indonesia, do they really have that much in common?  In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !
