OPPORTUNITIES: UNESCO MGIEP Gaming Challenge

Ever wondered if Gaming could address real world problems?

At UNESCO MGIEP we recognize the enormous potential of digital Games as a tool for peace education, Education for Sustainable Development and Global Citizenship. UNESCO MGIEP's Gaming initiative aims to position games as innovative tools for transformative learning by engaging with game developers across genres; and encouraging and enabling them to integrate peace and sustainability themes in their games. The initiative will incubate games on serious, real-life issues that strike the right balance between exciting game play and transformative learning.

UNESCO MGIEP Gaming Challenge invites game developers from around the world to push their creative limits to make a thrilling game on a peace and sustainability-related issue, and thus contribute actively to the growing ecosystem of games for change.

Entries for the challenge are now invited up till Midnight, February 15th, 2015.
