UP! BioGeography is an educational board game designed to boost STEM interest and raise awareness about food security through interactive learning. Players act as city mayors, managing resources, planting trees, and tackling real-word challenges like climate change and malnutrition. Integrating biology (nutrition, immuninty, agriculture) and geography (climate, ecosystems), the game enhances critical thinking, collaboration and strategic planning. A study with 150 students showed a 30% improvement in biology understanding. With a digital adaptation on TabletopSimulator and future expansions planned, UP! BioGeography aims to revolutionize STEM education while fostering sustainable solutions for global challenges.
