Buurtbewoners
Wijkbedrijf Selwerd is a community center in Groningen open to the people living in the neighborhood. Mostly elder immigrants go there to experience the warm community feeling they have. Because the people that visit the place are from all over the world and they do not speak Dutch or English, they often struggle to understand each other. In order to resolve that problem I came up with a card game that teaches the people Dutch words related to everyday items they encouter at the community center. A facilitation manual was also made to accompany the game.
Project duration:

Role:

I made the game as a downloadable PDF to print. But because of the excitement of the client I am currently working on making a physical version of the game.
Note: the 2D images used for the game are not made by me, but are downloaded from Freepik.com
