UNESCO highlights the importance of the Open Education Policy Game, available for free download | UNESCO

"To promote the democratization of knowledge and the implementation of open educational policies, the UNESCO Chair in Distance Education relaunches the Open Education Policy Game in 2024. Initially created in 2018, this social technology has been updated to incorporate the 2019 UNESCO Recommendations on Open Educational Resources (OER), focusing on demonstrating the implications of using Open Educational Practices (OEP) on learning outcomes.

Since its beginning, the Game has been an essential tool for collaborative diagnostics and implementing open educational policies in institutions committed to democratizing knowledge. The new version of the Game emphasizes open practices, collaboration, sustainability, shared management, public digital goods, and digital rights.

These experiences are aligned with five areas of the UNESCO Recommendation on OER: 

1. Empowering stakeholders to access, use, adapt, and redistribute OER 
2. Developing supportive policies
3. Encouraging inclusive and equitable quality OER 
4. Promoting the creation of sustainability models for OER
5. Facilitating international cooperation..."
