About the activity:
After one year and a half our consortium finished the draft for the European version of the
role play- & simulation game “In the footsteps of a migrant”. We will use the try out activity to test, evaluate and discuss the non-formal educational tool together with you. That means
you will get to know our new role play- & simulation game and will help us at the same time
to improve the tool and to make it better. The participants of the game will experience
processes of migration, the (legal) procedures in the arrival country and the process of
inclusion. The game should raise awareness on the complex reality of asylum procedures,
migration policies, border control and the role of media. The game will show the (in)human
side of what migration entails, it will be an interactive learning experience in which the
unimaginable becomes imaginable. We have chosen for a transcultural cooperation to
promote an European perspective and approach to connect the topic of migration to the
different sectors of education on an international level.
