See All EU Collaborations

About the project

The project’s specific objectives are to increase the knowledge and awareness on gender biases in gaming education; to enhance the capacity of VET staff to think and act in a more gender inclusive way; to equip vocational education and training (VET) staff with gender-inclusive tools to be used in orientation activities.

The project will produce a fact sheet on gender biases in gaming education and how to prevent and overcome them, drawing on a bottom-up analysis with female students and developers; a handbook on how to design more gender-inclusive curricula and orientation activities in gaming education, co-designed and validated with end-users and female students; a toolkit with a set of creative and interactive educational tools (role play, cards, videos) to be used during orientation and training activities.
