pe how children think about and handle conflict. The project has six partners, including the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC), an European Game Company, Serious Games, Bath University in the UK and ITU in Denmark. The general coordination of the project is done by  Kostas Karpouzis from the National Technical University of Athens, in Greece.
