The project is a collaboration between SOAS (PI Marie Rodet) and the Malian organisations Donkosira and Voice4Thought Academy (V4T) in the continuation of an AHRC-funded project through the Antislavery Knowledge Network, which used arts and humanities to fight against slavery in Mali.This new project aims to continue to make the history of slavery better-known and raise awareness against descent-based slavery in Mali yet this time through the co-designing of a mobile game with young Malian villagers from Western and Central Mali, and make it ultimately a factor for peace. This project targets mostly young generations, to develop their skills and knowledge of the history of internal slavery and of resistance against it. It will deepen their comprehension of Malian history, inspire and support them in the fight against descent-based slavery, for human rights and against discrimination, and thus change mentalities.Furthermore, it will empower them with technical skills which can assure them future revenues. In line with the UN objectives for the 'International Year of the Creative Economy for Sustainable Development', this project aims to develop creative support systems and capabilities among marginalised communities, and to promote social change and knowledge. This project involves equitable international collaboration with the creative and cultural sectors through its strong partnership with Donkosira and V4T Academy in Mali, as well as crucial knowledge transfer through its collaboration with Dutch Value Foundation specialised in digital humanities and online gaming and the Malian creative entreprise Kasart Media.The project has a huge potential in both producing creative knowledge and awareness-raising media, and in increasing knowledge of historical context and young people's commitment to fight for social justice and peace.

该项目是SOAS与（PI玛丽Rodet）和马里组织Donkosira和Voice4Thought Academy（V4T），通过反奴隶制知识网络继续开展一个由人权委员会资助的项目，该项目利用艺术和人文学科来打击马里的奴隶制。这一新项目旨在继续让更多人了解奴隶制的历史，并提高人们对血统问题的认识，这一次，我们与马里西部和中部的马里年轻村民共同设计了一款移动的游戏，并使其最终成为和平的因素。该项目主要针对年轻一代，培养他们对国内奴隶制历史和抵制奴隶制的技能和知识，加深他们对马里历史的理解，激励和支持他们打击基于血统的奴隶制，争取人权和反对歧视，从而改变心态，此外，还将增强他们的技能，确保他们未来的收入。根据联合国“创意经济促进可持续发展国际年”的目标，该项目旨在发展边缘化社区的创意支持系统和能力，并促进社会变革和知识。该项目通过与马里的Donkosira和V4T学院建立强有力的合作伙伴关系，与创意和文化部门进行公平的国际合作，并通过与专门从事数字人文和在线游戏的荷兰价值基金会以及马里创意企业Kasart Media合作，进行重要的知识转让。该项目在产生创意知识和提高认识的媒体方面具有巨大的潜力，以及增加对历史背景的了解和青年人为社会正义与和平而战的承诺。
