What happens when learning feels like play - and play becomes learning?

This session explores how public institutions are integrating gaming into education to create meaningful learning experiences. From learning through gameplay to learning by designing games, it shows how play can foster creativity, collaboration and problem-solving – and why these approaches are becoming increasingly relevant for future-ready societies. A new perspective on how education can truly engage the next generation, including on challenging issues such as labour rights and the fight against hunger.
