Would you like to sponsor us?

This project aims to improve education for sustainable development across universities and colleges, through educational board games and simulations in combination with online learning. We believe that this will increase students' long-term understanding and interest in sustainability.

In an earlier stage, a series of prototypes of educational games have been developed, in conjunction with a comprehensive online learning material for sustainability studies in higher education. Now, we are seeking support from sponsors to take this to the next step and thereby reaching a larger number of students. The project's potential is to contribute to a more sustainable future through better education of future leaders and decision-makers, particularly focusing on key competences for sustainable development such as systems thinking, values thinking, critical thinking etc.

As a sponsor of the project, you will receive:
