Aims of the tool

Description of the tool
Creating tools educational board games. “RE:Play” was based on the premise that creative recycling and edugames (used in youth work, communities, workshops, trainings), which are approaching urgent issues related to social exclusion, disempowerment and radicalisation of young people, as well as various global challenges, are making a very big contribution by including young people (because they are innovative, attractive, user-friendly), raising awareness, responsibility and engaging diverse target groups.
Upcycling, Board and Card games are a POWERFUL medium to transfer the message and that they
can be made in the educational setting with very little resources involved. We aim to transfer these insights to You(th) and to start mainstreaming board and card games into the educational youth work field (all this especially created from recycled materials).
