About us
We focus on the design and study of serious games - games with a purpose beyond entertainment. Our work brings together researchers, educators, designers and practitioners to explore how game-based experiences can improve learning, shift players’ perspectives and address real-world challenges.
We aim to raise the profile of games as tools for skill-building and decision-making. We find ways for policymakers and educators to engage diverse groups, test ideas in safe environments and generate insights into lived experiences using games. We also explore how games can best achieve professional development in areas such as emotional intelligence, decision-making and collaboration.
We work across sectors, including higher education, youth engagement and workplace training, with our projects combining theory, practice and stakeholder collaboration. We explore not only what works in serious game design, but why and how it works. This produces insights that support better tools, strategies and policies.
