Lecture series organised by Experimental Game Cultures.
Susanna Pollack will share how a bold idea grew into a global movement harnessing the power of games for
social good. Games are more than entertainment — they are immersive experiences that spark empathy, ignite creativity, and
bring people together across boundaries. From classrooms to communities, they are inspiring a new generation to see themselves
as changemakers, equipped with the skills and imagination to tackle the world’s greatest challenges. This talk will celebrate
the momentum of innovators already transforming lives through play, while inviting us all to envision what becomes possible
when we unlock the full potential of games. Ultimately, it is a call to embrace games as a force for hope, connection, and
real-world change.
Susanna Pollack is the President of Games for Change, the leading global
advocate for the power of games and immersive media as drivers of social impact. As a social entrepreneur and cross-sector
leader, Susanna has over 25 years of experience advancing ambitious social impact goals through traditional and interactive
media.
