Funded project

BRIDGE

Building Responsible and Inclusive Digitalisation through Game-Based Engagement

European Commission · REINFORCING · 2025‑26

Awarded €60,000 through the European Commission's REINFORCING programme, BRIDGE is developing an open-access ORRI (Open and Responsible Research & Innovation) tool to support responsible digitalisation in universities.

The project uses a low-tech, multi-stakeholder game approach to help students, academics, professional services staff, and institutional leaders deliberate on digitalisation challenges and identify opportunities for bottom-up institutional change.

A prototype is currently under development and will be made freely available through ethixCube™ upon project completion.

GEPPIE

Game-Based Ethics and Public Policy for Inclusive Education

British Council · 2026‑27

Awarded £23,996.24 through the British Council, GEPPIE is a UK–Brazil collaboration between the University of Greenwich and the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR). The project develops bilingual (English–Portuguese) game-based ethics scenarios that explore challenges in public policy, governance, innovation, and sustainable development.

Through collaborative scenario development, student testing, staff training workshops, and open educational resources, the project aims to strengthen ethics and public policy education across institutions and cultures.

A bilingual open-access toolkit and teaching resource archive are currently under development and will support future UK–Brazil collaboration in ethics and responsible innovation.

ethixAnalytics

ethixAnalytics is an analytics and AI layer currently under development to support collective ethical reasoning and deliberation across organisations, facilitated workshops, and public engagement contexts.

It is being designed to identify patterns in how groups reason, disagree, negotiate, and reach decisions, while also generating emerging ethical dilemmas from trusted public and organisational sources.

Nothing here has been built yet, and no figures are shown, because there are none.

Interested in collaborating with ethixCube™?

We are actively developing new pilots, partnerships, workshops, and research collaborations across education, organisations, and public policy.
