Highlights

In 2023, with the LEVEL UP program, UNICEF in Kazakhstan became one of the pioneers of the Game Changers Coalition, a global initiative centered on developing skills and creating opportunities for girls to create and develop safe and engaging games and gaming content of the future. This initiative aims to be representative of their voices, shaping content that millions of girls and boys will play.

LEVEL UP is primarily aimed at removing gender barriers in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) education and careers by offering opportunities to explore the essentials of video game development and gamification.
