The Sleep Deprivation Disaster

This committee is set in a futuristic global crisis in the year 2667, where chronic sleep deprivation has become a widespread public health emergency driven by technological overuse, urbanization, and exploitative “personal-energy” industries. In this cyberpunk world, most people rely on artificial energy supplements while natural sleep patterns are disrupted by constant blue light exposure, noise pollution, and intense societal pressures such as grind culture, gaming culture, and academic demands. With a majority of the population severely sleep-deprived and dissatisfied, delegates must navigate the competing interests of public health, economic systems, and corporate influence to develop solutions that increase global sleep rates without destabilizing key industries.
