Spearheaded by Techsoup Europe, Game Changer utilizes innovative technology and cutting-edge research to help promote tolerance and understanding to youth across Europe. We hope through the Game Changer Project, we can encourage young people to be the change in helping to build a more inclusive, open-minded, diverse and peaceful Europe.
Mid 2020, Game Changer is organising an inclusive and interactive 3-day discussion and CAMP to collaborate and share how technology can be used to empower young people and build resilience to violent extremism. The event is open to NGO representatives, youth leaders, academia, activists, industry experts and leaders.
We will be sharing the latest research (from our State of the Art Analysis), teach the most effective ways to conduct campaigns, how and why to use City Social Games.
Game Changer draws on international best practice to develop new resources to help youth activists/leaders and NGOs run online campaigns targeting young people who may be at risk of developing less tolerant, open-minded and inclusive ideology that may ultimately lead to negative actions.
Game Changer is developing an innovative and adaptable social city game, which will help NGOs, field experts, teachers and youth workers to promote civic engagement and address problems affecting young people in their communities at risk for developing intolerance and closed-minded ideals.

Game Changer is an European Union grant funded project that ultimately provides training tools, field expert support and guidance to NGOs, young people and their influencers. Game Changer will incorporate two main elements; online social media campaigns led by youth and offline City Social Games.

The Game Changer Project is a partnership of NGOs working with young people, technology and field experts, media specialists and youth activists based primarily in France, Greece and Poland.
