The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Investment Promotion Activity (IPA) has announced the ‘Green Alliance: Gaming Challenge Awards’ for Pakistani game developers concerned about climate change.
The award aims to encourage the development of commercially viable games that raise awareness about mitigating climate change, promote sustainable climate-smart practices, and encourage youth to take measures to protect the planet.

The awards are open to all geographic regions of Pakistan, and women-led/owned businesses are encouraged to apply.
