Climate Change and Games Webinar

Saturday October 10, 2020 11am (EST)

There are many ways in which individuals and communities can start to explore their own responsibilities and potential in relation to the climate crisis. As games designers, games theorists/teachers, facilitators of games-based learning and practitioners of playful / gameful design in general, our panellists believe that games and gamification can be powerful tools for exploring what is, and what can be. Gameful design can help in raising awareness and achieving deep learning in complex issues, as well as motivating and empowering individual behaviour modification, systemic understanding and change, and innovation practices.

Join us on Saturday October 10, 2020 at 11am (EST) when our two panels of experts will be reflecting on their own practice and what it tells them about how games can be used as a response to complex issues such as the  climate crisis. You will come away from this session filled with ideas about how you could incorporate games, gamification and playful design in your work around sustainability, resilience, or innovation around specific areas such as energy, transport, food, the circular economy or nature.
