Hi! I think this might be of interest of this forum. I just wanted to share with you information about a competition that was recently launched by Changemakers.net. They are challenging game developers and looking for innovations in gaming that can be used to help people manage their health and improve how their care is provided. The competition is called “Why Games Matter".
From the Changemakers site: "This contest will feature a panel of judges who will select approximately 12 finalists, after which online votes will determine the top 3 winners, each of whom will receive $5,000. As an added bonus, all finalists will also be given the opportunity to attend the “Why Games Matter” Change Summit at the upcoming 2008 Games for Health conference".

Let me know what you think!

I think you guys are going at the right direction. I believe this type of games will spread health awareness among us. Specially in childes. because in current time 99% kids play video game. and this game will let them know what to do in emergency or in critical medical situation.
