ELSPA Runs Panel on Video Games as a Force for Good
From gamedaily.com:
“The ELSPA and BAFTA yesterday held a discussion about how video games can be a force for good in society. The panel was chaired by journalist Mary Riddell, with its members including Children’s Society deputy director of new business Martin Houghton-Brown, The Lighthouse Group national director Mike Royal, The Church Mission Society’s Marketing & Fund Raising Director Joseph Steinberg, and ELSPA chairman Andy Payne.
“We now live in a digital age where the nature of playing games has changed. Now we have online games where interaction with others is possible,” said Houghton-Brown. “Children tell us supportive and loving relationships are key to a good childhood, we need to equip parents and carers to support children to stay safe when they play in the growing online world.”"
