🎉 Celebrating One Year of GREAT – Games Realising Effective & Affective Transformation – EU & UKRI-funded project!
Thanks to our SGI partner Simon Egenfeldt-Nielsen (& Tim Garder), we had the wonderful opportunity to be in Copenhagen for our second in-person project consortium meeting. It was a fantastic experience as all partners joined for 2 productive days of interactive workshops, capacity-building activities, interesting conversations and delicious meals. Special thanks to our associate partners Ahmed Tlili, who joined us all the way from Beijing Normal University, China, and Byron Bunt, who joined us virtually from Northwest University, South Africa!
During the meeting, we deepened our analysis of our upcoming case studies to reach the promised scientific, societal and economic impact. Our first case study has been a hugely successful one with 400k citizens reached to gain their preferences on climate policies, via surveys shown in game ads. Out of which ~3000 were engaged and ~2350 had fully completed the surveys.
Together, we will continue to highlight the transformative power of games, societal change and using games to make an effective communication channel between citizens and policy-makers!
