Goal
Our goal is to enhance the skills, knowledge, and confidence of young people and youth workers in the field of social entrepreneurship through gamification. By blending creativity, storytelling, and critical thinking, we want to spark a new generation of socially responsible, digitally savvy changemakers across Europe.
The resources we create will support the development of a more inclusive, informed, and resilient European workforce, capable of tackling real-world challenges through innovation and cooperation.
All resources will be free, open-access, and designed with inclusion in mind. Whether you’re in a classroom, youth centre, or online setting, DEGSE gives you the tools to turn learning into a meaningful, playful, and transformative experience.
Check back soon for downloadable content, demos, and updates!
