NYU has introduced new phone-free spaces, events, and resources at its campuses in New York, Abu Dhabi, Shanghai, and other global locations. The initiative is part of NYU IRL’s efforts to encourage students to be more present by reducing screen time.
The university aims to support students in limiting their use of mobile devices through these designated areas and activities. This approach is intended to help students focus on real-life interactions and experiences across its international sites.
