Pope's communications day theme targets 'attention economy' pitfalls

Original: Pope’s communications day theme targets pitfalls of the ‘attention economy’

The Vatican has announced the theme for the next World Day of Social Communications, focusing on the pitfalls of the so-called attention economy, where digital platforms compete to capture and monetize human attention. The choice signals the Catholic Church's continued engagement with questions of technology, media ethics, and how constant digital distraction shapes human relationships and communication.

Why now: The Vatican's decision to address the attention economy reflects growing global concern about social media's impact on human attention and society.
