Agora Falo Eu!

Last September 11th, the game “Agora Falo Eu!” Was publicly presented at a session that took place at the Raiz project facilities in Ramalde, Porto.

The “Agora Falo Eu!” is a pedagogical card game , based on the Brazilian initiative “De Olho na Escola” and that was created within the scope of a project of Education for Citizenship. The game, initially developed as a participatory diagnostic tool, is by itself, a pedagogical tool that promotes the construction of knowledge and the development of civic competences.

The game contains 8 question cards and 120 picture cards. Throughout the game, children are invited to respond to the question cards with the picture cards provided to them.

This game is meant to:

Through the diagnosis made, we can better define the projects and initiatives to develop.

Explore citizenship and development themes: the game allows the contact with citizenship themes and the participation in democratic institutions.
