The Creative Cities project is finished, but some of its tools, such as Future City Game, still attract the great interest. That’s why we worked out a special system for its facilitation. You can chose one of the variants listed below:

  • If you want to run a Future City Game only once, you need to purchase a licence from the British Council, which costs 300GBP. According to the licence British Council provides you with all the necessary instructions, materials, documents and contacts of the game master; You prepare and facilitate the Future City Game by yourself;
  • The International Association for Corporate Education (MAKO) will purchase the game license from the British Council and organise Future City Games on the regular basis. For more detailed information use the following contact details: http://www.makonews.ru, tel. 7 (495) 788-37-41;
  • if you are interested in the Future City Game as a tool and want to run games on the regular basis, you should purchase a year licence from the British Council (a year licence for 4-10 games per year costs 1000 GBP);
  • British Council will organise Future City Games in the framework of the Creative Economy project if the aim of the game suits the aims of the project.

You can find the cases from the past Future City Games, guidelines, contacts of the game maters from Russia and Europe, documents and materials on the Creative Cities international web-site

Past events   
The 11th Future City Game in Russia took place in the framework of the first innovative forum for the young talented people who started their career in the energy sector. The forum took place on July, 10-16 in the Kaluzhskaya region of Russia. It was organized by Rosatom and supported by Russian ministry of energy. International Association of Corporate Education who are the holders of the FCG licence organized the game under the topic of an energy efficient city and Obninsk where the first nuclear plant in the world had been built became the platform for the game. The local government as well as Obninsk citizens took a very active part in the game along with the participants of the forum. Each team was working on its own aspect of energy efficiency: at home, in the office, in public spaces, as part of transport infrastructure etc. The mayor of Obninsk was inspired by the ideas generated during the game and promised to get the game participants involved into the ideas implementation. Enjoy the photos from the game!
