In 90 Days

Ensure diversity, equity and inclusion considerations are integrated into the organisation's work with people and communities, with attention to the most marginalised.

Players are asked to deliver equitable and inclusive intersectional programming informed by analysis, naming gender, age and disability.

Ensure people's participation in decisions and actions is meaningful for them and corresponds to their preferred ways of engaging.

The game encourages practising accountability to affected communities through meaningful participation and a collaborative approach

Plan and implement programmes which respect and build upon local knowledge, capacities and existing actions.

Players are asked to build on community assets, capacities and existing preparedness plans rather than starting from scratch.

Regularly monitor and adjust programmes to ensure actions are timely, accessible and address the priority needs of people and communities.

One of the six badge areas is the appropriateness, timeliness and relevance of the response, which is what the ninety-day clock and the quality-speed-cost trade-off are built to test.

Apply relevant technical standards and recognised good practice in the organisation's work with people and communities.

The game covers events that require upholding recognised humanitarian obligations under pressure, giving prevention of and response to gender-based violence as its example, so the player applies accepted good practice when a faster or cheaper option is on the table.

Support local capacities to anticipate and reduce risks of potential crises or disasters.

Learning outcomes cover preparedness plans and intentional action to avoid unintended effects, though whether the game has the player strengthen local capacity to anticipate risk, rather than draw on it, is not documented.

Identify, prevent, mitigate and address potential and actual negative impacts of programmes on people and communities.

A published outcome asks the player to take intentional action to avoid unintended negative effects of their decisions.

Identify, prevent, mitigate and address potential and actual negative impacts of programmes on the environment.

One outcome asks the player to weigh resource use against environmental considerations alongside quality, compliance, safety and risk, but how far the game models environmental harm from programme choices is not described anywhere.

Ensure the work of the organisation is coordinated with and complementary to locally led and community-based actions, and those of relevant stakeholders.

A published outcome asks the player to judge which coordination mechanisms to use with other humanitarian entities serving the same communities, and coordination is one of the six badge areas — though the outcome names other agencies rather than locally led action.

Regularly listen and respond to feedback and inputs from people and communities about the organisation and its work.

A published outcome asks the player to adapt programming based on complaints and feedback, and integrating community feedback is one of the badge areas.

Use data from monitoring, feedback, complaints and learning to guide decision making, and to improve programmes and the organisation's ways of working.

A published outcome covers selecting tools and methods for programmatic learning and improvement across contexts, with organisational learning as a badge area, though how the game connects that learning to monitoring data is not described.

Leadership, staff and volunteers promote and demonstrate an organisational culture of quality and accountability.

The player is the manager whose decisions the game judges on behalf of a team and the people it serves, so the play loop asks them to set the standard for a response rather than follow instructions within one.

Maintain a safe and inclusive working environment, taking measures to protect the safety, security and well-being and dignity of all staff and volunteers.

A published outcome asks the player to ensure staff are treated fairly and equitably and supported in an empathetic, safe working environment with risks mitigated, and fair treatment of staff is one of the badge areas.

Manage financial resources responsibly in line with recognised good practices.

The game economy runs on limited resources and competing pressures across ninety days, with every event weighing cost against quality and speed, so the player practises allocating funds and supplies and sees the consequences of spending them badly.

Manage and use resources to achieve their intended purpose, minimising waste and the impact on the environment.

A published outcome asks the player to balance effective and appropriate use of resources against programme quality, compliance, safety, risk and environmental considerations.
