With roots in the famous World Game*, o.s.Earth's Global Simulation Workshop is an exciting, innovative interactive game that builds critical skills, social bonds, and global awareness.

 

The Global Simulation Workshop is a live-action game in which participants assume the roles of global leaders. The players must use creativity and integrated thinking to succeed in a complex environment. Each participant forms a small part of the entire conceptualization, part of a team, a company, an institution, a nation, the world.
