Vol. 3 No. 2 (2025): Game Jams, Game-Making with Values, and Games Through and For Culture

The International Journal of Games and Social Impact is a semiannual open-access publication for games research and critique on social change, inclusion, education and Human Rights. IJGSI was established in Lusófona University to research, discover, and foster links between games studies in academia and civil society through educational and knowledge exchanges.

This Journal is supported through Hei-Lab (https://hei-lab.ulusofona.pt/; https://doi.org/10.54499/UIDB/05380/2020) and CICANT (https://cicant.ulusofona.pt/; https://doi.org/10.54499/UIDB/05260/2020) research units as a strategy to foster multidisciplinary, fundamental, and applied research approaching the intersections between games and human activities.

This special issue of The International Journal of Games and Social Impact seeks to explore the manifold theoretical, practical, and methodological dimensions of game jams, game-making and games as cultural expression, engagement, practice, transformation, or invention.
