Games4Green is an innovative Erasmus+ project, a European initiative focused on combining the power of video games with environmental awareness. Through this project, we aim to equip young people, particularly those in vocational training, with the skills to develop serious video games that highlight critical issues such as climate change, sustainability, and green practices. Our mission is to harness the creative potential of gaming to inspire positive action for the planet, while also boosting youth employability in one of the fastest-growing industries – game development. 

The consortium has developped a comprehensive, self-paced online course (SPOOC) designed to teach video game coding and design with a green focus. Through this interactive and practical learning experience, students will gain hands-on skills in game creation while also learning about environmental issues and sustainability. No prior experience in programming is required, and the project fosters a diverse and inclusive learning environment that welcomes participants from all backgrounds.
