A November of Creativity: Let's scale Change Through Social Commerce
A4R 🎨 Monthly - a GenZ co creation.
Ciao beautiful people,
How are you doing? As we go into the festive season it is a great time to look back and see how far we have come over the last quarter. It seems like yesterday we started re purposing our arty refugees content into micro games and today we have well over 20 micro games ready for you.
This play and learn approach is developed using Ai for you to gain a deeper insight into the refugee experiences of famous artists. While the podcasts help you learn about issues communities face trying to rebuild themselves after the conflict is over. You can listen to them when you are … in the gym/ commuting to work/ in the library and … wherever you like.
We are also working on gaming art as NFTs well. So, soon you will soon be able to participate in social commerce more actively with us here. Keep an eye out 🙋
