It is within this dichotomy \u2013 between new problems and the old familiar ones \u2013 that the Proyecto Hombre association brings all its experience and expertise, built up over 40 years of treating addiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So today, on Generaci\u00f3n EdTech, we have <a href=\"https:\/\/educaedtech.foundation\/en\/edtech-generation-the-man-project\/\">Manuel Mingorance<\/a>, president of Proyecto Hombre in Granada, to help me understand the origins of addiction and how the various factors interplay <strong>old ghosts alongside the new ones<\/strong>, who are very tech-savvy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Are we facing a problem that will only get worse?
