GenL
The project
Training a new generation of workers
GenL was created as a board game in 2019 to launch the orientation activity Let's Work for Legality and enable younger people to play an active role. In 2021 the board game was integrated with an online version, later turning into a video game in 2022. The 2023 edition takes on an European character more and more by opening the competition to all EU member countries and launching the GenL –Europe Edition initiative.

Workers' rights and duties
Building a bridge between students and the world of work
Let's work for Legality is an orientation project created in 2019 by the National Council of the Italian Labour Consultants’ Order and its Studies Foundation, in collaboration with the Provincial Councils of the Order. Designed to build a bridge between students and the world of work and, at the same time, draw the attention to the importance of the fight against corruption and organised crime.

Promoters of legality and honesty
Strengthened by their role as primary promoters in the management of employment and the whole labour field, Labour Consultants want to promote values of legality and honesty to permeate professions and businesses, with positive consequences for the society as a whole. How? Through interactive workshops for students and with the activity provided by the GenL video game.

European Edition
A bridge between students and Europe
To involve other countries allows to generate a pool of European students/players. Indeed, the game identifies a winner for each country who accesses the European edition to share his idea in a real plenary simulation. By taking place in Brussels, the European plenary serves to outline, discuss and vote on the best idea among those presented by students from all over Europe.
