The CouncilHelp shape
what comes next.

A forum taking shape around one question: how can digital experiences make more room for play, movement and real-world relationships?

Starting point
A conversation, then agreed participation

01 / WHY THIS CONVERSATION

Better questions.
More room to play.

Parents, educators, researchers and the people making digital content bring different experience to the same conversation. The Council’s proposed role is to put those perspectives in dialogue, examine evidence and challenge assumptions.

GameFit’s starting idea is that stories and games could invite children to continue an experience through physical, imaginative and social play. That is a direction to explore and test, not an outcome demonstrated by a GameFit pilot.

Our published Insights provide a starting point. Stories, games and programs remain in development. We welcome informed disagreement as well as shared interests.

01

What deserves attention?

Content quality, family choices, access and children’s growing independence.

02

What makes play possible?

Friendship, confidence, inclusive activities and the practical barriers families face.

03

What would responsible design require?

Clear intentions, appropriate safeguards and credible ways to evaluate future ideas.

02 / PERSPECTIVES WE ARE SEEKING

Experience from
different places.

These are invitations to contribute, not a confirmed membership roster. You do not need to represent an organization to express interest.

01

Parents & families

Bring the realities of everyday routines, access, independence and shared time.

02

Research & youth development

Question the evidence, intended outcomes, limitations and safeguards.

03

Education, sport & recreation

Connect ideas with the practical conditions for participation and play.

04

Media, games & technology

Explore how stories, characters and design choices can invite an experience beyond the screen.

05

Athletes & creators

Consider credible ways to connect with young audiences and encourage participation.

06

Organizations & prospective partners

Discuss where expertise, development capability or a future collaboration might fit.

03 / HOW PARTICIPATION COULD WORK

Start with
one contribution.

A first contribution could be a conversation about a research question, feedback on an editorial theme, a practitioner’s perspective, or a discussion about future content and testing. These are possible formats to explore together.

Council service is pro bono. Ambassador activity, development work and commercial projects are discussed separately. There is no fixed time commitment or project scope offered through this form; responsibilities would be agreed individually before work begins.

Submitting interest does not confirm membership, an ambassador role, a pilot or a partnership. Your name, organization and comments will not be presented as participation or endorsement without separate agreement.

    Introduce yourself

    Tell us your perspective, interests and where you could contribute.

  2. 02

    GameFit reviews the inquiry and may follow up by email for an initial conversation.

    Agree the next step

    Any role, contribution, timing or use of your name is agreed separately.

BEFORE YOU GET IN TOUCH

A few practical answers.

Is the Council already established?

The Council is forming. We are inviting expressions of interest and exploring how people could contribute. This page does not announce a confirmed roster, meeting calendar or delivered program.

Can I inquire about a partnership instead?

Yes. Choose the relevant collaboration path in the form and describe what you would like to explore. An inquiry does not create a commercial agreement or commit either party to a project.

Will my submission be made public?

No. The inquiry is stored for private review and follow-up. Public attribution or participation would require a separate agreement. Please do not include children’s names, identifying schedules, health details or confidential material. See our privacy information.
