Develop your own Ethnopoly in your home town



Where does your neighbor come from? Do you know something about his/her culture? And what exactly is your own culture?

 

Ethnopoly is a game for school children and young people, which has already taken place several times in Switzerland. Equipped with a city map and a ticket for the public transports groups of 4 youngsters travel around in their city. They come into contact with different cultures and discover other people's home. Points can be collected from every family the groups visit. Ethnopoly uses positive emotions to approach the topic of integration and intercultural learning. Instead of putting the focus on the problems we try to use positively the great potential that diversity of cultures has.


This workshop will allow you to

  • become familiar with all the basic concepts of the game

  • develop your very own Ethnoploy game!


The course of the workshop will greatly depend on your own inputs: if you bring along creativity, motivation, and the willingness to become active, then the end of the workshop will be the beginning of a great new project...
