WHAT IF A GAME COULD CHANGE THE WORLD?
Based on a belief that everybody wants to, and can, transform the world, The Elos Institute of Brazil, works with people from marginalized communities and young social entrepreneurs to recover their ability to dream new realities and find the will to actualize these dreams now.
Elos is a social nonprofit organization founded by a group of urban planners and architects who use the Elos Methodology, the arts, and cooperative games (e.g., the Oasis Game) to create opportunities where people can contribute joyfully, voluntarily, and cooperatively to build a more beautiful,peaceful,and abundant world for all.
Join Edgard Gouveia Junior, co-founder of the Elos Institute, as he leads an experiential and thought-provoking workshop showcasing the use of cooperative games to facilitate social change. Through cooperative games, presentation, video of the Oasis game in action, Q&A, and discussion, youʼll leave this workshop energized and eager to incorporate and/or expand cooperative games in your work to to promote individual, group, organizational, and systems change.
