On 6th December, The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the Children's Global Media Summit at the Manchester Central Convention Complex.
The Summit brings together creative, technology innovators, policymakers, executives and thought leaders from around the globe to inform and redesign the future of media for this generation. It also explores the impact that digital technology will have in children's futures.
They first visited the BBC Children's department to see how the BBC runs interactive workshop called "Stepping Out" sessions. The session is a focus group where young people are able to give children's editorial staff and content producers their view of how they respond to new programmes.
Then, the royal couple took part in a feedback session with young children from The Friars Primary School. They have a chance to talk about mental health and how it affects them or how they try to cope with it to help inform TV programming.
At The Children's Global Media Summit met lots of experts who belong to organizations and brands such as ABC, Disney, Endemol Shine, Facebook, Google, Netflix, The Premier League, Zodiak Kids, Minecraft, and many more.
They had a short private meeting related to Cyber Bullying Taskforce to find universal tools for children to report bullying when they see or experience it.
From Prince William's speech: "Parents like Catherine and me are raising the first generation of digitally-immerse children - and this gives us many reasons to be optimistic about the project of technology on childhood.
We have put the most powerful information technology in human history into the hands of our children - yet we do not yet understand its impact on adults, let alone the very young."

Funny thing. Prince William talked about Prince George and said: "I went to my boy nativity play. It was funny. It was a sheep."
Also, Jack Royston reported that when a crowd member shouted: "Hi, Prince Harry" he replied, "I'm not ginger!" William has a great sense of humor.
