The challenge is to motivate them in a way that really fits their own lifestyles and communication style, and that is often digital. It is important to really make the effort to immerse yourself in the target group and listen carefully to them. This is why we use serious games as an effective tool to reach young people and make them aware of their impact on the environment. Even if this challenge starts outside on the street. Together we work towards a more sustainable world by being more aware of our own environment.     <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_section et_pb_section_2 et_pb_with_background  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_section_regular et_block_section\" >\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_row et_pb_row_2 et_pb_equal_columns  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_d4_element et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column et_pb_column_4  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode et_block_column\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_heading et_pb_heading_3 et_pb_bg_layout_\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_heading_container\"><h3 class=\"et_pb_module_heading\">Here&#039;s how it works<\/h3><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_text et_pb_text_2  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Himmel Heroes, named after the Frisian <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">himmelje <\/span><\/i> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(\"cleaning\") is an AR game that motivates young people in the municipality of Leeuwarden to actively participate in cleaning up litter.
