Trócaire are challenging Irish students to give up social media for 24-hours.
The 'Sign up Sign out' challenge takes place this week, and aims to give young people time to reflect on life outside the digital world.
During their 24 hours offline - students are being asked to seek sponsorship or organise fundraising events to help those less fortunate in the developing world.
Has your school signed up to the challenge?
