Description of Session
Male circumcision isn't a game - its a serious medical procedure that can reduce HIV infection rates in men. And while the vast majority of male circumcisions happen without complications, there are sometimes adverse outcomes. The VMMC program in Tanzania sought to reduce complications to a minimum through an innovative training process - a serious game to support VMMC counseling and male circumcision procedures. In this fast, fun lightning talk, we'll walk the audience through the game development process - from the conception, to design, testing, and usage of the game to show how programs can use gamification of training programs to increase health outcomes.
