What is larp?
Game, experience, but also learning
Larp, or live action role-playing game, is a kind of action game in which participants physically portray their characters.
Decisions which shape attitudes
Through having conversations, interactions and acting improvisations, players develop a story in which their characters take part. Their own decisions are important in the story. But most importantly, larps, in addition to play and improvisation, they open up important topics for education, such as bullying, cyberbullying, prejudice and stereotypes, drug addiction and others.
Larp as a method
Tell me and I'll forget. Show me and maybe I'll remember. But let me try it and I will understand.

What are benefits of educational larps?
Larp is literally a learning by doing in which all students are actively involved. Through their decisions, they shape not only the direction of the story, but also their attitudes, values and opinions.

What teachers say about larps?
LARP as a role-playing game is also a popular educational method among teachers and youth workers. It is increasingly becoming part of formal and non-formal education.
This training opened up completely new horizons for me. Larps are an excellent educational tool, thanks to which students not only hear a few nice words about things, but also experience them for themselves. And experiencing something once is incomparably better than hearing about it a hundred times.
Larps are an excellent tool that can be used in the educational process. They leave a deep impression and with them one not only learns a lot in an interesting way, but also understands the context. I definitely recommend it to all teachers and youth workers who care about the development of their mentees.
"I see great potential in larps. They work great with young people. Larp is playful and interesting. At the same time, you can go deep in feedback. I recommend this training as a great start into the world of larps.

About the project
LARP and ERASMUS+
LARP is widespread throughout the world. It is a method used by teachers and youth workers in many countries. We joined forces with some of them and, thanks to the Erasmus + program, we created methodological materials through which we want to introduce this role-playing game in Slovakia, Estonia and Czechia as well.
WHO IS BEHIND THE PORTAL?
The project is implemented by the civic association V.I.A.C. - Institute for Youth Support and Development in cooperation with the Czech association Trendum and the Church Associated School in Tartu from Estonia. The main goal of the project is to shape the attitudes of young people through larps, especially in the area of tolerance for differences and in the area of decision-making on important issues in their lives and the subsequent bearing of the consequences of these decisions.
Educational larps are suitable for students aged 13 to 30. All materials and trainings are designed for teachers and youth workers in both formal and non-formal education.
