On Tuesday, March 6 2012, Games for Change will be holding a new day-long Summit at the annual Game Developers Conference (GDC) in San Francisco. GDC is the longest running and world's largest professionals-only game industry event, drawing in over 19,000 attendees annually. Those interested in submitting content to our summit, Games for Change @ GDC, can do so by visiting the GDC Summits Call for Submission page. The deadline for submissions is Monday, October 31 2011 at 11:59pm ET.

Games for Change facilitates the creation and distribution of social impact games that serve as critical tools in humanitarian and educational efforts. Games for Change @ GDC represents, for the first time, an opportunity to bring together those funders, NGOs, government agencies and educators seeking to leverage entertainment and engagement for social good with leading game developers from the independent and commercial sector. Through case studies, roundtables, lectures and demos, Games for Change @ GDC will highlight models for collaboration on game design, bridging the gap between commercial and issue driven game development, distribution and publishing alternatives, and much more.
