STRATEGIES

Sustainable Transition for Europe’s Game Industries is a research project funded by Horizon Europe and the UK Government until 2028. It is made up of fifteen partners from nine different countries covering all the main regions of Europe. This includes six universities, four NGOs and five game companies. 

Our project is developing policy recommendations to unlock the potential of the game industries to drive societal change. We are creating leading-edge carbon accounting tools for both analogue and video game production and will provide carbon literacy training for game developers. 

Our research will develop and promote improved game design for sustainability, helping the game industries make ecogames that support the behavior changes needed to reach Green Deal goals. 

As a member of Playing for the Planet Alliance, we will

  • Share our expertise about green storytelling and sustainability design;
  • Collaborate in improving and benchmarking industry practice on GHG emissions;
  • Sharing research and evidence for the behaviour change impact of games.

We believe that where research occurs on key societal issues, this research is benefitted by working together and sharing expertise and resources.
