«The Interactive Technologies Institute is delighted to announce the closing session of the “Game Art and Gender Equity” (GAGE) project on March 8th, International Women’s Day. The event will be held at the Interactive Technologies Institute facilities, in the Beato Innovation District, and can be watched remotely.
The event promises to be a culmination of years of dedicated research and creative collaboration around the participation of women in the gaming industry in Portugal. The highlight of the evening will be the teaser of the animated short film ‘Mnema,’ a representation of the voices and experiences of women in the gaming industry.
‘Mnema’ is an animated short film directed by Carolina Bonzinho and Inês Costa, produced with the support of the Agency for the Promotion of Atlantic Culture (APCA Madeira). The film incorporates the results of GAGE’s empirical research, presenting a visual universe that encapsulates the stories and experiences of women in the gaming industry.
The event will be attended by relevant stakeholders in the fields of gaming and gender equity.»
