For the first time outside Turkey, we have introduced gamification in animal welfare education! 🐑📱
As part of a thesis project carried out by students at the United Arab Emirates University, the mobile application developed with the support of ImonaGame was tested with farmers, university students interested in animal husbandry and participants from different disciplines.
This interactive game, supported by real farm scenarios, photos and videos, not only provided participants with knowledge about animal welfare, but also empathy and awareness. While 80% of farmers stated that the game was educational and effective, almost 100% learning was achieved even in students not related to animal husbandry.
This study has great potential for transformation in terms of both education and ethical animal husbandry. This journey, which started with an academic thesis, will reach wider masses in the future and contribute to the quality of life of animals.
