Dear Game Maker Community,

Game Girl Workshop is a concept, where we teach teenage girls to make their own computer games.

During June and July we have been running the Game Girl Workshops in Denmark and Palestine. It has been a great adventure and experience - you can see the documentation and process of the workshops through our social media here:

Thanks to Yoyo Games for sponsoring the event!

This is a wonderful cross-cultural exchange effort. Hats off to you all. And it's great that YoYo Games helped sponsor the trip to Palestine. Another good reason to buy YYG products.

@GameGirlWorkshop: are you Andrea or Nevin? Someone else? Either way, it's really impressive that just two people on their own could make this such a huge success. +1

Funny... I just happened to check your twitter feed before I saw your last post... so I already read the article. It's good. Hope it bring some good attention to your efforts.
