Mayority in the Community
The Community Package
Being mayor is not a game! Mayority provides children and teenagers with the chance to explore the responsibilities associated with this important role, and with the challenges of leading a community.
In collaboration with students from the Centre for Applied Games Studies at the University for Continuing Education Krems (Austria), we have developed two packages focused on political work within a community. You choose either the “Community Day” package, which includes activities for half a day, or the shorter alternative, “Collective Community”.
Field Test
Interview with Mayor Robert Weber
Robert Weber, mayor of Guntramsdorf (Austria), initiated a pilot project on democracy education in collaboration with youth councillor Paul Gangoly. Mayority was put to the test as part of the initiative.
What do others say?
"Impressive learning outcomes and lots of fun"
The serious game Mayority shows players how challenging it is to organise life within a community in a way that ensures everyone’s happiness. Mayority not only leads to impressive learning outcomes but is also a lot of fun to play.
"A wonderful entry point"
“Mayority is well-suited for teachers with limited experience of integrating games into the classroom, thanks to its accessible and user-friendly approach.”
"A valuable contribution to political education"
Mayority, the professionally guided discussions, as well as the concluding roundtable with the mayor and youth council, made a valuable contribution to political education. The pupils were able to gain many insights into the intricacies of societal decision-making processes and their consequences.
