DiGRA and “Gamergate”

The executive board of the Digital Games Research Association publicly condemns the harassment and bullying that some of its members have faced over the last few months due to their work researching and studying videogames. DiGRA is categorically opposed to this kind of behavior.

About DiGRA

DiGRA is an association for academics and professionals who research digital games and associated phenomena. It encourages high-quality research on games, and promotes collaboration and dissemination of work by its members.

DiGRA was established as an independent, volunteer organization and is financed by membership dues. We are self-governing and remain responsive to our members, who have always had the freedom to choose how we are run and what research should be encouraged and developed at our conferences.

As a scholarly organization, we encourage and promote constructive discussion about how games work, what they mean, and how they impact society and culture.
