As part of our project: ‘Studying the use of mezquite to improve the welfare of communities in arid and semi-arid zones of the world’ we designed and produced an educational board game highlighting the history and uses of Mezquite. This ludic tool was based on the traditional Mexican game Loteria. This game educates and raises awareness of the value and ethics of how mezquite can be used.
We are preparing the academic paper for this resource, watch this space!
