―  Our Vision  ―

We see a need to innovate the way we talk, discuss, learn, make plans and take decisions about our seas and oceans. We must look at the sea from a broader and longer-term perspective. Learning to go beyond self- and short-term interests. We think that planning and decision-making about the maritime economy and marine ecosystems can become more intelligent, interactive and immersive.

By making use of emerging digital technologies, such as games and virtual reality, we can connect geo, maritime and marine data, with eco modelling and maritime simulations. The MSP Challenge is a community-based, open source and non-profit initiative, since 2011. Thousands of people around the world have experienced the MSP Challenge simulation platform and board games.

The MSP Challenge is an open source, community-based, not for profit initiative since 2011. Lead developer Breda University of Applied Sciences (BUas) the Netherlands, is custodian of the MSP Challenge Simulation Platform, website and user community. Funding and contributing organizations and persons are fully credited in the user community wiki.
