UNITE GamiFOREST Coffee Talks #1
Climate Change Engagement and Games by Daniel Fernandez Galeote
How do games engage players with large environmental issues such as climate change? How can players, as citizens, practitioners or from any other role identity, connect with environmental topics and explore their own understandings, feelings, and actions? In this talk, I will present a few different ways in which climate change is represented in digital games and players invited to interact with it. We will discuss how forests may factor in this space, and how they can be places both present and absent; known and alien; (ab)used and ignored; and where both climate problems and solutions materialize.

What are UNITE GamiFOREST Coffee Talks?
The aim of the Gamiforest Coffee Talks is to give the latest updates about the different projects going on in the scope of the Gamification Work Package of Unite Project and start conversations around them. Each month a researcher from Gamification Group, Tampere University will give talks about the following subjects. Our ultimate purpose with these talks is to create awareness about the possible ways of gamifying forests, raise discussions, hear the feedback of the community and form collaborations with the interested parties.
