IGEA acknowledges and pays respect to the past, present and future Traditional Custodians and Elders of this land and the continuation of cultural, spiritual and educational practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We would like to extend our acknowledgments to the indigenous people from countries overseas & recognise their strength, wisdom and creativity.

The Digital Australia 2020 (DA20) provides evidence for the power of games: video games are not only main-stream, they are now normalised in everyday Australian culture. DA20 demonstrates how, why and who plays video games and the power of games to entertain, transform, create, connect, communicate, live well and educate.
