Through the\u00a0<em>Minecraft Education Edition,<\/em>\u00a0children will explore the\u00a0<em>Future Healthy World<\/em>\u00a0and gather information on various ways to address health issues within their communities. The ultimate goal is for children to design and construct their ideal Future Healthy World.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Deana Leahy, Associate Professor at Monash University, explains that the project uses citizen\u00a0science as a way for kids to identify and understand the impact of the commercial and social determinants of health whilst also engaging them in the planning to take action (where they can) on the commercial and social determinants of health in their community.\u00a0The aim is for kids to have an opportunity to collectively contribute to a better, healthier and fairer community and share their ideas with key decision makers in their school or community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsfuturehealthy.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">More information<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Kids-buiding-future-healthy-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6773 lazyload\" width=\"768\" height=\"432\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Kids-buiding-future-healthy-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Kids-buiding-future-healthy-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Kids-buiding-future-healthy-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Kids-buiding-future-healthy-18x10.png 18w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Kids-buiding-future-healthy-373x210.png 373w, https:\/\/unescochair-ghe.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Kids-buiding-future-healthy.png 1200w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 768px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 768\/432;\" \/><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monash University and VicHealth have collaborated to create \u201cKids Building Future Healthy,\u201d an educational edition of Minecraft aimed at children between the ages of 9 and 12.
