TESA Collective (Toolbox for Education and Social Action) is a worker-owned co-op that designs games and tools for social justice organizations. TESA consciously engages in ethical, social change practices that intend to create healthier communities.

Social change games

Creating and publishing games that address issues of social and economic change is a growing trend. TESA develops projects ranging from board games, to documentaries, to interactive webinars. In cooperative games, everyone wins or everyone loses.
