Ellis was asked by NGO Oxfam to co-develop a game on entrepreneurship in Somalia to enable Somalian youth to become entrepreneurs as a preparation to become more autonomous and capable to make a step towards business in a play-full environment. With a team of youth in Somalia, they developed prototypes, conducted user-tests and most crucial: finding local content about entrepreneurship appeared a challenge.
