Abstract
In this article I discuss how participatory action research (PAR) and game jams can be mutually enriching activities to achieve social transformation. PAR is a collaborative method where researchers and participants go through a cycle of reflection and action to understand and solve a collective challenge. Game jams are playful events where people from different disciplines build on collective knowledge to create game prototypes. The literature review is illustrated with eleven game jams held in Switzerland and Canada to create games for respiratory physiotherapy in cystic fibrosis, and to foster self-management in asthma. Together, game jams and PAR offer attractive and inclusive contexts to ease the appropriation of interdisciplinary knowledge, develop leadership and social skills, and foster civic engagement.
En este artículo analizo cómo la investigación-acción participativa (IAP) y las *game jams* pueden ser actividades mutuamente enriquecedoras para lograr una transformación social. La IAP es un método colaborativo en el que investigadores y participantes atraviesan un ciclo de reflexión y acción para comprender y resolver un desafío colectivo. Las *game jams* son eventos lúdicos en los que personas de diversas disciplinas se basan en el conocimiento colectivo para crear prototipos de juegos. La revisión de la literatura se ilustra con once *game jams* celebradas en Suiza y Canadá para crear juegos destinados a la fisioterapia respiratoria en la fibrosis quística y fomentar la autogestión del asma. En conjunto, las *game jams* y la IAP ofrecen contextos atractivos e inclusivos para facilitar la apropiación del conocimiento interdisciplinario, desarrollar habilidades sociales y de liderazgo, y fomentar el compromiso cívico.
