Oslo Pride Launches Pride Awareness 2
In partnership with Attensi, Oslo Pride is launching Pride Awareness 2, a gamified learning experience that helps employees build understanding, confidence, and inclusive behavior in practice.
"Oslo Pride wanted more than traditional training – they wanted something that actually drives change. Through game-based learning, employees become active participants who experience, practice and act in realistic situations. The results from the first version speak for themselves: high completion rates, strong engagement, and with an enhanced experience, we've made the path from awareness to action even shorter."Tuva LønneSenior Behavioral Designer, Attensi
Inclusive Workplace Training Through Gamification
The workplace is one of the most important arenas for inclusion work. It's where inclusion happens in practice, through the meetings, collaboration, and relationships that take shape every single day. That's why Oslo Pride, in partnership with Attensi, has further developed the training game Pride Awareness.
The game is built to reach a wide audience, regardless of age or experience. It requires no prior knowledge and works just as well for people who played the first version as for new users. Through interactive mini-games and dialogues with avatars, based on realistic situations from working life, the game builds awareness of queer diversity and strengthens understanding of what it means to be a good ally.
Specialists from the queer community were involved in developing and quality-assuring the content. This ensures both a high degree of authenticity and a respectful approach. Based on feedback from earlier users, the game has been further developed with clearer, more accessible language, a smoother user experience, a new visual identity, and a brand-new module on the experiences of transgender people.
Engagement across the entire organization
Aker Solutions is one of the organizations that completed the first version of Pride Awareness. Their experience shows what the format can do when it reaches across an entire organization.
"At Aker Solutions, we know that employees who feel safe perform better, and that diversity brings more perspectives and better ideas. Pride Awareness has created engagement and pride across the organization. With a good balance between humor and seriousness, the game addresses both simple and more complex topics. It's inspiring to see how the game format sparks competitive spirit and reaches a broader audience than we expected!"Aker Solutions

Results that prove the format works
The first version of Pride Awareness has already demonstrated the real impact game-based training can have on inclusion efforts. More than 15,000 employees have completed the game. Players achieved an 80% competence gap closure and completed each module an average of nearly 2.5 times – a clear sign that the format is engaging enough to bring people back for more.
It's this success that forms the foundation for Pride Awareness 2.
"Attensi has done a phenomenal job. The game generates great engagement and competitive spirit, while presenting the professional content in an accessible way that everyone can relate to. For many people outside the queer community, this is an important eye-opener."Dan BjørkeExecutive Director, Oslo Pride
