Climate Fresk Workshop Info

Do you want to be part of the solution to tackle climate change, but don’t feel that you know enough climate science? Join us for a 3-hour interactive workshop to explore the causes and consequences of climate change, and find out about local groups and projects working on climate solutions that you could be a part of!

Based on the IPCC report and played by over 2 million people worldwide, this collaborative workshop allows you to understand the key issues of climate change and empowers you to take action.

How it works:

• The workshop is based around a 42-card game. Each card represents an element, a cause, or a consequence of climate change.

• In teams, guided by your facilitator, you are encouraged to find the cause-effect relationship between the different components of climate change. Collective intelligence will get you from one deck of cards to the next!

• This step-by-step reconstruction provides the keys to understanding the complexity and developing an overview of climate change.

Agenda:

• Introduction, 15 mins

• Fresk Card Game, 1 1/2 hours

• Debrief and Actions, 1 hour 15 mins

Climate Fresk is an excellent opportunity to understand the key elements of climate change and what you can do to be part of the solution. No previous climate knowledge needed. Recommended age 16+.

Bring a smartphone or laptop if you have one! Food and drinks provided. Workshop run by Climate Justice Taranaki. Donations welcome!
