EDUCATIONAL GAMES CONCEIVED BY KASA TO CONTRIBUTE TO CIVIC EDUCATION OF THE YOUNG

Percipio is a game conceived by the KASA Foundation with the support of UNICEF Armenia parallel to the creation of the manual Youth for Society for facilitating discussions about social problems among young Armenians.

Percipio consists of cards illustrated with the works of the young Polish graphic artist Pawel Kuczynski which highlight different challenges the modern world faces in social, political, environmental issues etc.

Percipio can serve as an engaging and educational pastime activity stimulating your imagination and capacity of association.

Made in Armenian and English, the game is available for 4 000 AMD at the Espaces Centre (Yerevan) and KASA Gyumri (Gyumri).

Civic has been created by the KASA foundation with the support of UNICEF Armenia parallel to the creation of the manual The Youth for the Society for facilitating the discovery of perceptions, attitudes and civic stereotypes among young Armenians.

The game has 41 cards containing simple or compound nouns, verbs and adjectives, word groups and proper nouns. One of the peculiarities of the game is the 11 role cards with which the participants assume different roles to explain the words on the cards. To better use the educational potential of the game, we recommend you to note the words difficult to explain and to look up their explanations as well as to organise discussions to analyse and understand why a given role/word has determined a particular perception type.

Civic has all the features to serve as an educational and fun pastime.

Made in Armenian and French, the game is available for 3 000 AMD at the Espaces Centre (Yerevan) and KASA Gyumri (Gyumri).

Enter Dignityland is a game about social rights intended for young players where the participants are members of parliament of an imaginary country named Dignityland. As parliamentarians, the players are to decide for the coming five years upon the development programme for social politics and rights. The decision-making process helps the participants acquire new knowledge about social rights and the relation of the latter to social politics.

The game was conceived within the framework of the project ENTER! with the aim of promoting young citizens’ access to social rights as well as of celebrating the 50th anniversary of the European Social Charter. It has been translated to Armenian by the KASA Foundation with the authorization of the Council of Europe.

The game is available for 10 000 AMD at the Espaces Centre (Yerevan) and KASA Gyumri (Gyumri).
