最近、様々なビジネスやサービスに「ゲーミフィケーション」をどう取り入れる
かが、話題となっています。今回の勉強会では、ゲーミフィケーションとその例
を概観した後、特に社会貢献活動にどう応用できるかを考えてみたいと思います。

「ゲーミフィケーション」とは、ゲームのように楽しむ要素を組み込むことに
よって、消費者/ユーザーのモチベーションやロイヤリティを高める手法です。

SpeakerはMr. Nhat Vuong。Nhatさんは、ベトナム戦争難民としてスイスで
育ったご自身の体験から、「ゲーミフィケーション」の考え方を活用した
新世代の社会貢献・寄付プラットフォーム「i-kifu」を最近立ち上げられました。

勉強会では、Nhatさんによるプレゼンの後、CARE International Japanをはじめ
２つのNPOの方にお越しいただき、それぞれの活動についてプレゼンいただきます。

後半は、参加者によるBrainstorming session。
次の2つのテーマについて、グループで自由にアイディア出しをする予定です。
１）ゲーミフィケーションの手法を使って、前半でプレゼンをしたNPOの活動を
どう活性化できるか。
２）ゲーミフィケーションの手法を、ご自身のビジネスや活動にどう生かすこと
ができるか。

From your bedrooms, in the train, to social networks, to the screen of
your smartphone: it seems like everyone is playing video games these days.
Is this just a lot of time-wasting, or can these idle fingers be put to
good use for positive change?

Gamification is the use of game design techniques and game mechanics to
enhance non-game contexts. It's a strategy that increasing numbers of
charities and NGOs are employing to engage with their supporters.

Join our interactive workshop facilitated by Nhat Vuong (Founder and CEO
of innovative website ikifu.org) as we explore what gamification means and
how it can be applied to social good.
