Workshop - Clean Games Summer Workout
What is the Clean Games project: Clean Games are team competitions in waste collecting and sorting. During games players use our mobile app - just like Pokemon Go. Since 2014 more than 1000 games have taken place in 20 countries. Up to 1500 people take part in one game and collect 20 tons for an hour. On average a player collects 10 times more waste during Clean Games than during traditional clean-ups.

Description

Summer Workouts and an Online Workshop for activists and NGOs

The workshop consisted of a series of webinars during 14-28 June 2021. Workshop participants in teams learned about Clean Games* approach with experienced leaders and were invited to take part in the Clean Games Summer Workouts. 

The international contest for Clean Games organizers, took place on 26-27 June. The winner was chosen for attracting the maximum number of participants. Organizers competed in teams led by experienced coordinators and the April 2021 Workshop alumni.

The online workshop enabled to learn how to hold Clean Games events. Attendees got to know the gamified cleanups format, learned how to work with the Clean Games mobile app and website, run negotiations, and attract a wider audience, media, brands, and local administration.

Clean Games hold its first workshop in April 2021 for more than 50 participants. After a series of webinars they have organized 9 test games and prepared the international competition Summer Workouts, which took place on the 26th-27th of June. The workshop participants hold their test games within the tournament and the best city was chosen.

Attendees from the Baltic Sea Region got access to the Clean Games knowledge base, and were invited to become one of the organizers within the annual Clean Games Baltic Cup with reimbursement for this event's expenses. The tournament was held for the third time on World Cleanup Day, on 18 September 2021.
