Board game: Safe haven - Floods
Abstract
“Safe haven – Floods” is a serious game designed to raise awareness and promote understanding of flood risk. The game employs simple yet dynamic card-based mechanics to simulate real-world challenges associated with flood hazard and risk. Participants need to manage the flood risk in a municipality. During the game, they gain insights into the complex interplay of factors influencing flood risk and explore effective risk reduction strategies. Target audiences include high-school students, educators, and different stakeholders offering them a collaborative, interactive environment to discuss and experiment with risk management concepts.
