Abstract
As in many West African countries also in Ghana there is a high rate of teenage pregnancy, which creates great political concern. This problem found major attention in the context of the FACIL-ICT project conducted by the University of Siegen, Germany in collaboration with two Ghanaian districts (Nsawam Adoagyiri and Suhum ). In order to curb the high rate of teenage pregnancy, a game titled “Amanda’s story” was developed to test the use of a serious game for health prevention campaigns on teenage pregnancy in Ghana.
