Join us Tuesday 17 February from 3-5:00pm GMT (4-6:00pm CET) both online and in-person for the interactive event “Serious games for future food systems”.
Serious games are becoming a key tool in exploring sustainable strategies for transforming food systems. This session, organized in collaboration with WUR Community of Practice on Foresight and Scenario Analysis, the CiFoS team, WUR Games Hub, and TABLE, invites participants to play one of several food systems games and will include a short introduction to serious games.
Participants attending in-person at WUR will be playing the CiFoS game, a board game focused on redesigning food systems for both human and planetary health, developed by the CiFoS team led by Hannah van Zanten, and designed by an interdisciplinary team of experts led by Federico Andreotti and Demi Hordijk, in collaboration with the Bomburo design studio (Andreotti, Hordijk et al. 2026).
Furthermore, this event marks the launch of a physical game library at Wageningen University in partnership with the Teaching and Learning Center, as well as an online game library with TABLE (Games at TABLE).
