DemGames for Debates - developed in partnership with NDI’s Citizen Participation and Latin American and Caribbean teams - provides users with a fun way to practice the terms and concepts associated with crafting arguments, identifying evidence, and justifying rebuttals.
Make civic education accessible, measurable, and fun with DemGames–a lightweight, "edutainment" platform that hosts simple games to provide basic instruction at scale to youth on democracy concepts. Interactive learning platforms offer a unique opportunity to engage with youth on democracy–with a technology approach that meets them where they are. Games for good can build behaviors and reinforce concepts that lead to widespread social impact. DemGames brings together NDI's tested civic education best practices with an engaging, fun platform. Taking a human-centered design approach, DemGames was developed through a three-design design sprint where participants discussed ideas for a platform for youth to interact with traditional content in a fun way. DemGames makes it easy to set up your own game and gives program implementers an innovative way to reinforce absorption and retention of knowledge.
