Abstract
Spurring societal transformations towards sustainability requires the active engagement of different actor groups with their broad range of preferences, interests and values. Individuals and communities need to acquire knowledge, skills, and capacities enabling them to navigate transformative change. Serious games can act as such capacity building tools but also as a feedback loop for research and policy processes.
期刊介绍:
GAIA is a peer-reviewed inter- and transdisciplinary journal for scientists and other interested parties concerned with the causes and analyses of environmental and sustainability problems and their solutions.
Environmental problems cannot be solved by one academic discipline. The complex natures of these problems require cooperation across disciplinary boundaries. Since 1991, GAIA has offered a well-balanced and practice-oriented forum for transdisciplinary research. GAIA offers first-hand information on state of the art environmental research and on current solutions to environmental problems. Well-known editors, advisors, and authors work to ensure the high quality of the contributions found in GAIA and a unique transdisciplinary dialogue – in a comprehensible style.
