WHAT IS THE AIM OF THIS Conference?

The Conference on Digital Games and Environmental Awareness intends to disclose, to share and to foment the discussion around research works, pedagogical experiences and other contexts, in which digital games or gamification are used to bring attention to the thematic of the environmental awareness.
The works to be submitted should be framed within the following themes: game design processes, game creation, gamification strategies, serious games, game-based learning, among others.

This conference is held in the context of the Gamers4Nature project. This project aimed to develop and implement strategies to encourage the active participation of young people (upper-secondary and undergraduate students) in the creation of games for mobile devices, as a way to promote a change in behaviour and awareness in relation to the environment, promoting knowledge about environmental conservation and biodiversity
