First, we see video games as **tools for change**—a concept and *practice* mirroring our values. We prioritize **collective care and well-being**, ranking it high among our top five principles.

Finally, **empowering individuals** and supporting their personal growth and agency is crucial. We also strive to challenge entrenched industry norms, advocating for equity. While 'equity' is a concise term, it encompasses broader issues we can explore further. By aligning decisions with these values, we can address both immediate challenges and broader concerns, leading to more equitable and sustainable practices.

Our values should inform our actions: the why, what, and how. At Gamma Space, we're driven by the belief that video games can instigate change. Our goal is to confront systemic biases. And we plan to achieve this through three main strategies: nurturing collective care, fostering accountability, and enhancing creative empowerment. This approach helps us scrutinize and refine our decisions, aligning them with our values. For example, when contemplating new projects or allocating funds, these values provide a lens through which we assess options. A solid, shared understanding of our values allows us to delve deeper into decision-making, applying concrete principles to a broader range of questions and challenges.

Here is an example for an accelerator program for underrepresented game studio founders. This illustrates how initial ideas and potential negative outcomes are considered. One effect is that participants learn various skills, but concerns about reporting, privacy, and intellectual property are also acknowledged as secondary effects.
