The Global Game, the updated edition of Buckminster Fuller’s masterful “World Peace Game”, will include students, teachers, community leaders and people of all races, religions and ages. This one-day simulation immerses “players” in a series of current life situations dealing with the global issues like poverty, climate change, terrorism and many others. The purpose of the game is to provide participants with tools and resources for making the world work for 100% of humanity by demonstrating how diversity, cooperation, and an abundance mindset can reshape our lives and transform society, globally.
The event is sponsored by the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) and takes place at Los Angeles Trade Technical College.
