The seventh meeting of the project “EURBANITIES -EMPOWERING CIVIL PARTICIPATION THROUGH GAME BASED LEARNING” took place in Potenza from the 09th to the 10th of June. The project, approved by the German Erasmus Plus National Agency, is co-funded by the Erasmus Plus Programme KA2 Strategic Partnerships for Professional Training (VET).
In Europe the participation of citizens is often hindered by the lack of information, communication and cooperation between stakeholders as well as a limited knowledge on the different options available to promote local interests. EUrbanities is a project interested in the increasing use of gamification as a method to motivate people to activate people and raise awareness about urban issues. The EURBANITIES game will function as an online game for individual use as well as a pedagogical tool for a training program. The game will be built according to several scenarios of participation established following the evaluation of experiences of participation in neighborhood-level development. Its aim is to stimulate the strategy-making process of civil activists and residents that are actively participating in neighbourhood-level urban development projects.
The meeting addressed the development of the initiatives and activities of the project, focusing on the e-game created by our association.
