DigiMedia researchers, Pedro Beça and Mónica Aresta, participated in the 10th GALA conference, presenting a poster and conducting a workshop on game narratives design.

The GALA 2021 is an international conference dedicated to the science and application of serious games, and its objective is to provide an international forum for the dissemination and exchange of scientific information on theoretical, generic, and applied areas of serious games. GALA 2021 is an event organized by the Serious Games Society in collaboration with the NATO Science and Technology Organisation – Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation.

Pedro Beça and Mónica Aresta, researchers of the Gamers4Nature project, organized a workshop along which participants were challenged to develop a narrative for an environmental digital game by using the G4N Toolkit to Game Design. A poster introducing the process of creating and validating the Toolkit was also presented at the conference.
