Come celebrate our 5th year!

Games for Change is happy to announce the 5th Annual Games for Change Festival on June 2 - 4 at Parsons, the New School for design in New York City.

Confirmed speakers include Jim Gee and Henry Jenkins in a keynote conversation (in honor of our Fifth!) and many others!

Exciting new activities and partners are in the works, including a day-long 101 workshop for those new to the field (aimed especially at non-profits) on the first day of the festival June 2nd, confirmed presenters there include Barry Joseph (Global Kids), Eric Zimmerman (GameLab), Heather Chaplin, (journalist/author) and Alan Gershenfeld (E-Line Ventures, formerly of Activision).  Along with 2 full days of festival programming on June 3rd and 4th, there will be media and funders briefings, working group breakfasts, Expo Night and lots of networking opportunities!

Call for proposals will be announced in early January, so stay tuned.

We hope to see you there.

Happy holidays!

Suzanne
