Hello Renata. I know some people who are interested in this, but looking at the website we didn't find the terms and rules for the competition. Do you know where they are available?

Hi all
This is the kick-off event for a competition which will go on in July 18 in London. 
Basically it's a research group looking for ideas of games to incubate/fundraise
They have to be games for social change and civic tech themes
Would be interesting something around the theme of DNS Policy
May the games begin :)

What is to be done? Games for Social Impact
Date: Thursday 25th January 19:00 – 21:00 GMT
Location: Newspeak House 133 Bethnal Green Road E2 7DG
 
Over 2.2 bln people world-wide will be playing games in 2018. A hit game is fun but also an opportunity for deep learning and transformative experience. As technology, politics and urbanisation makes our lives more complex, games can help us to learn faster about things we need to know to thrive in this new post-truth world.

Cybersalon.org will host a panel on how game creatives and social innovators can put spotlight on real-world challenges like state and work surveillance, fake news and anti-democratic practices of modern governments while providing inspiring game experience.

 

Speakers

Rich Metson – game designer and OFF GRID co-author. The game reveals the world of surveillance and invites player to explore the avoidance and defense techniques.

Amanda Walker –“Fake It to Make it “ US-based web games author and interactive designer interested in fighting propaganda and confusion in Mainstream Media in US and beyond (joining via Skype from US)

Osmiotic Studios – Hamburg-based authors of "Orwell" game, sharing the key points from the development and potential of the game for impact

Ben Greenaway – Cybersalon’s games’ reviewer who will discuss Riot and also impact of AI and AR in Games for Change

Chairing Rosa Carbo-Mascarell - London-based game designer and Corbyn Run game co-author , Creative Director for Game Jam and Games For The Many

Cybersalon will be hosting a Summer 2018 competition for Game Creators Challenge and will incubate/support projects with production and fundraising support. We are looking for AI applications in Games for Social Change, AR as well as web-based, mobile and board games that aim to bring fun to civic issues.
