Block by Block is a charitable initiative founded as a partnership between Minecraft developer Mojang and the United Nations which aims to encourage young people to get involved in urban regeneration. The scheme uses Minecraft to allow children to rebuild and reimagine their hometowns. The program began in Sweden, where Minecraft was first created, but has since expanded to many other countries. Mojang acts as the primary financial sponsor for the program. The project is part of the UN Habitat's Sustainable Urban Development Network. The program follows in the footsteps of Mina Kvarter, a similar Swedish initiative that used Minecraft to modernise apartment complexes.
