A resource that, through play, would serve to raise awareness of sustainable agri-food initiatives and promote active and conscious citizenship.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”24976″ img_size=”full” onclick=”kalium_lightbox” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]We transformed the initial prototype of the escape box \u2018The mystery of transformative foods. A game to recover the territory’s food sovereignty\u2019 designed by Novessendes and Pankara into a fully developed, ready-to-use educational tool.<\/p>\n

We proposed a compact and attractive game format, with durable and reusable materials<\/strong>, allowing for easy portability, assembly and use in various educational contexts<\/strong>. The design approach was based on three key principles: playability, sustainability and replicability.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”25034″ img_size=”full” onclick=”kalium_lightbox” css=””][vc_single_image image=”25048″ img_size=”full” onclick=”kalium_lightbox” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]The escape game consists of five situations<\/strong> or challenges that participants must solve as a group, following a narrative that invites them to discover the effects of the current food system and explore local agroecological alternatives.<\/p>\n

Makea was responsible for the complete design of the physical game.<\/p>\n

The birch plywood box<\/strong> (FSC certified) serves as both packaging and game device. Cards, tokens and game components<\/strong> were designed on recycled paper, with a clear and adaptable aesthetic. Reusable and durable elements were incorporated to ensure a long service life<\/strong> and facilitate maintenance<\/strong>. The design was created with replicability and adaptability<\/strong> in mind for future editions or territories.[\/vc_column_text][vc_images_carousel images=”25050,25052″ img_size=”full” onclick=”kalium_lightbox” speed=”2000″ autoplay=”yes” wrap=”yes” css=””][vc_single_image image=”25054″ img_size=”full” onclick=”kalium_lightbox” css=””][vc_column_text css=””]The escape box is a fun and transformative educational resource<\/strong> that facilitates understanding of the impacts of the industrial agri-food system and introduces local solutions that promote a fairer, healthier and more sustainable model. The escape box combines narrative, strategy and cooperative play, creating memorable and stimulating learning experiences. Its functional, robust and sustainable design ensures its continued use in training courses, workshops, conferences and various educational contexts<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”25060″ img_size=”full” onclick=”kalium_lightbox” css=””][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_single_image image=”25056″ img_size=”full” onclick=”kalium_lightbox” css=”” title=”Prototype”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
