Guiding definition
Ludic activism is the intentional creation and use of games and playful experiences as tools to foster critical thought and action toward inclusive horizons of justice. It understands play as an end in itself and also as a means to promote dialogue and participation, especially for groups and issues that have been historically excluded or underrepresented, encouraging a more solidaristic society without imposing hegemonic positions or exclusionary ends.
