RE.W.I.N.D. Project Progress: Developing the Edu-LARP Experienc. The RE.W.I.N.D. project continues to advance as partners collaborate on the development of its core educational tool: the Edu-LARP (Educational Live Action Role Playing). This innovative methodology uses immersive storytelling to encourage young people to reflect on gender stereotypes and their impact on society. In this phase of the project, partners are working together to design the LARP scenario and explore common stereotypes related to women’s representation in different areas of life. Through collaborative workshops and discussions, participants are contributing ideas that will shape the characters, conflicts, and narrative structure of the game. The goal of the Edu-LARP experience is to allow participants to step into different roles and perspectives, creating a space where they can question assumptions, reflect on social dynamics, and better understand how stereotypes influence everyday choices and opportunities. As the project moves forward, the consortium will continue refining the LARP design and preparing the next activities, including artistic workshops and future public LARP events that will involve the wider community.
