Here are our impressions:

🇱🇻 "Interesanta pieredze, bija patīkami tas, ka jaunieši bija ļoti atsaucīgi un labprāt palīdzēja mums. Sasniegts mērķis: aptaujāt un iepazīstināt cilvēkus ar mūsu mājaslapu."

🇬🇧 "It was an interesting experience. It was especially nice that the young people were very welcoming and happy to help us. Mission accomplished: we introduced people to our website and gathered their feedback."

Back from Mind The Mountain Youth Exchange in Norway

Climbing mountains and overcoming challenges to get closer to our dreams - in "Mind The Mountain" Erasmus+ youth exchange in Norway, together with Joetz International

Markuss:
“Thank you for the wonderful opportunity to explore the mountains of Norway, make new friends, and step outside my comfort zone. This project helped me better understand both myself and people from different cultures while developing new skills.”

Rūdis:
“From this project, I am taking away friendships, cultural experiences, and valuable lessons, such as being more open to others and stepping out of my comfort zone. During these seven days, I especially enjoyed that everything took place outdoors—even using the toilet and eating—which was a challenge for me. You not only visit another country but also meet complete strangers who slowly become your friends over the course of the week. That is what creates the best memories in Erasmus+ projects.”

Artis:
“Through this project, I learned the skills necessary for a multi-day hike. I had the opportunity to put them into practice during a beautiful yet challenging two-day hike in the mountains of Norway.”

Alise:
“During the project, I met people from different cultures, learned about the unique characteristics of the Norwegian mountains, gained practical hiking skills, and experienced unforgettable moments that will stay with me for a long time.”

Vera:
“This project was both highly educational and exciting. I experienced many positive emotions and gained memories that will stay with me for a long time.”

Ance:
“I gained many valuable memories and practical skills from this project that I will be able to use throughout my life. This project reminded me that climbing a mountain can be just as difficult as overcoming challenges in life, but that anything is possible, no matter how difficult it may seem. I made new friends, received valuable advice, and created memories that will help me overcome future challenges, just as they helped me climb the mountain.”

MosaiCity 2nd Testing

🎲 Another successful playtesting session for our InGameGration board game "MosaiCity"!

This time, an improved version of the game was tested with young people and youth workers—and the discussions were even more lively than before! Building an inclusive city sparked passionate debates, creative ideas, and plenty of laughter.

The session brought another round of valuable insights:
🟢 Introducing a time limit for discussions would help keep the game flowing.
🟢 Players even suggested adding fines for breaking the rules or poor discipline, making the gameplay more dynamic and fair.
🟢 The testing also helped us better define the recommended minimum age for players.

With every playtest, the game becomes stronger. Most importantly, it is becoming increasingly clear that the game encourages communication, cooperation, critical thinking, and negotiation, while fostering empathy, intercultural understanding, and inclusion.

InGameGration is a KA2 Small-Scale Partnership project in the framework of Erasmus+ programme coordinated by L’Albero Della Vita (Italy) in a partnership with FrauFam e.V. (Germany) and Miromida (Latvia). The project aims to enhance youth workers’ competencies in engaging young migrants through game-based learning and storytelling.

1st InGameGration game testing in Latvia

🎲 The very first playtest of our InGameGration board game (working title: MosaiCity) has taken place in Latvia! 🇱🇻

Although still in its prototype stage, the game already proved to be engaging, thought-provoking, and a lot of fun. Players worked together to build an inclusive city, balancing different needs while trying to uncover the hidden "baddies" among them.

The testing gave us plenty of valuable insights for improvement:
🟢 In the case of a tie vote, a simple tie-breaker (coin toss or rock-paper-scissors) would keep the game moving.
🟢 Action cards could reward players with an extra vote instead of additional money.
🟢 Character profiles should include more cultural customs and traditions to strengthen the intercultural learning experience.
🟢 The city board needs clearer district boundaries.
🟢 And one thing became very clear—our city definitely needs two bridges across the river! 🌉🌉

This is exactly why prototyping matters. Every discussion, every suggestion, and every laugh helps us create a better game.
