Description:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n RealLives puts the “face” on global statistical data & indicators from 193 real countries (collected over many years by various global agencies) by using gamification, data analytics, AI & cloud technologies through our proven simulation platform RealLives (RL) (www.reallivesworld.com). RL creates billions of life narratives of \u2018ordinary people\u2019 \u2013 stitching them out of real world data. RL is also driven to revolutionize classrooms by introducing the \u2018Empathy-to-Action\u2019 paradigm, which leads us to seamlessly connecting the life narratives with the relevant UN\u2019s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) \u2013 to enable a nuanced understanding of the life challenges ordinary human beings face in the light of sustainability challenges. Students (whether school or collegiate) can step into experiencing these lives and gain insights in solving the challenges of sustainability that face the world while surviving as a family. In the process, RL builds empathy and also creates change-makers with a vision for solving global problems.
