This May, the only festival dedicated to the exciting new movement of Digital Games for Social Change will explore real-world impact, the latest games, and funding strategies. Hosted in New York City by Parsons The New School for Design, the 6th annual Games for Change Festival will take place May 27 – 29, 2009. The Annual Games for Change Festival brings together the world’s leading foundations, NGOs, game-makers, academics, and journalists to explore how best to harness this incredibly powerful medium to help address the most critical issues of our day, from poverty, climate change, global conflicts, to human rights. Every year, the festival doubles in size and brings in new, high-impact partners.
The festival includes 3 exciting days of panels, keynotes and brainstorming sessions, private events for journalists and foundations, as well as an evening games Expo media event and reception where attendees can play these new games first-hand. Called "the Sundance of video games" for "socially-responsible game-makers" we’re promoting a new genre of video game – games to change the world – for the better.
Join us in this exciting and important new field! |
