Notes for Judging: For today’s digital-native generation, representation in gaming is as crucial as representation in real life. Through an innovative strategy, we uncovered : 74% of developers said they would play a role in promoting better representation of textured hair in video games – if they could learn how to code textured Black hair. Dove has a track-record in education. Through the Dove Self-Esteem Project, founded in 2004, it is the world’s leading provider of body-confidence and self-esteem education for young people. By the same principles, if we could educate developers with the skills they needed affirm gamers’ self-perception and confidence, the impact would be huge. 
(Note: this next part is CONFIDENTIAL) We are actively working with two major gaming studios – Ubisoft (the gaming company behind the ‘Assassin’s Creed’ franchise) as well as Undead Labs (studio behind the ‘State of Decay’ franchise) – on employing our Code My Crown guide in upcoming game launches. We have conducted virtual learning sessions with devs/art directors at both Ubisoft as well as Undead and now are in the process of determining specific launch plans.
