Abstract:

Two years ago, I created an interactive board game, Refugee Journeys, which allows players the opportunity to experience settlement and integration from the viewpoint of a randomly generated refugee identity. The game has been widely used, yet understanding its effectiveness has been challenging. In this article, I detail the methodological choices made during project development along with the challenges and opportunities afforded by seeking to understand the effectiveness of the Refugee Journeys board game. Deeper understanding of the factors influencing the effectiveness of educational interventions allows for the assurance that these initiatives are meaningful and result in positive change.
