Research subject

The purpose of the present project is to enhance opportunities for interaction for girls with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), starting from the age of six, and their guardians and/or grandparents through a digital game designed within the framework of Serious Games. Serious Games combine game dynamics and engaging experiences to achieve goals in areas such as health.

The goal is to create a shared platform for interaction, communication, and mutual engagement, aiming to increase understanding of the girls' abilities and challenges in everyday life. Another objective is to develop support specifically tailored to the needs of these girls, as well as to enable them to discover strategies for better managing difficult situations in contexts such as preschool, school, and other social environments.
