EVOKE in brief
Young people worldwide, especially in Africa, took on hunger, poverty, disease, water access and climate change in a ten-week online game with one mission and one quest per week. Players submitted blog posts, videos or photos as evidence, and game assistants awarded points. Finishers could claim a certified social innovator title, and top players could win mentorships and a trip to a summit in Washington, DC. Jane McGonigal led the design.
