Digital Games
WHAT IT IS:
Websites, web applications, or apps that utilize game mechanics to engage users in peace education, simulation, or narrative promotion.
WHAT IT OFFERS:
Digital games are a tool that offer a different, less direct, way of engaging with empathy-building, dialogue, or interactive contextual & historical learning possibilities. Games have been shown to be a persuasive way to influence certain behavior-related issues. They can reach a very different audience, typically more youth focused, and they prove especially useful where there is “peace fatigue.”
