All partners aim to deepen their knowledge and competence in the application of non-formal methods of education in inclusive work. We are sure that the game is one of the most interesting formats. Games are an effective tool to support instruction in the work of inclusive groups. When your students know how to play a game, they can play it independently. Some board games and many electronic games are available commercially or online, but they don't always support the skills that your students need to build.
