About the Women and Video Games Festival

UNC Charlotte will host a series of events the week of February 15th - 20th 2016 to encourage women and girls to explore game design and programming, and to promote a creative gaming culture that is inclusive of individuals regardless of gender, race, or creed.

Events will include a keynote lecture by game critic Anita Sarkeesian on February 18th, as well as workshops, panel discussions and game jams.

These events will encourage participants to learn about computer science and informatics, wet their toes in tech waters by trying out various computing and programming activities, and to critically engage with issues of gender, technology and media culture.
