Report published August 2024

As part of Meta’s commitment to build the metaverse responsibly while providing safe and age-appropriate experiences, this report shares learnings from multistakeholder exploration on the topic of social, multiplayer online games on mobile and in immersive settings. The report explores insights from research workshops with parents and their children aged 10-13 in the US, UK, Ireland and Australia, paired with expert observation and consultation sessions with third-party organizations and advisors. The report also shares actions Meta has taken with these research insights in mind.

Our goal was to elevate the perspectives of families and third-party advisors to inform our product design strategy for children aged 10-12 to access age-appropriate immersive social experiences in Meta Horizon Worlds on mobile and in Meta Quest. This report is intended for government, academia, civil society and industry. We are publishing learnings and outputs to share openly with the broader community of expertise around age-appropriate digital design.
