Climate Justice Conversations is a game designed by the CHASE Climate Justice Network. It is intended for researchers, teachers and students in the arts, humanities and beyond - from medievalists to media theorists, philosophers to practitioners - to explore what it means to research, teach and create amidst epistemic injustices and environmental emergencies.

The game provides a framework for stimulating and difficult conversations about what it means to be a scholar or practitioner in an age of climate breakdown, and how we could change our research practices, disciplines and institutions to better tend to matters of climate in/justice. As the west continues to veer into uncertain - and dangerous - ecological futures, Climate Justice Conversations offers an opportunity, in conversation with others, to find fresh tactics both to weather the storm and incorporate more environmentally sound working practices into research.

This workshop, hosted at SOAS, University of London, introduces the game, giving participants a chance to explore their own relationship to climate breakdown and to explore how the game can be used with others. This workshop is ideal for people who:

are concerned about climate justice and the environmental crisis but don’t know where to start or how it fits with their own research, teaching or creative practice;
are looking for new research or pedagogic tools to help explore environmental and social justice issues;
are interested in the use of games and visual resources for exploring challenging and important topics.
Want to think and talk more about the multiple environmental crises in a controlled context, in person, with others, through the template of a game.

The workshop will facilitated by Karolina Szpyrko and Kae Rose. It will be for 3 hours, with a refreshment break in the middle.

CHASE Climate Network will be hosting further workshops on Climate Justice Conversations through November and December 2025 at institutions within the CHASE Network.

The creation of the game and this workshop is funded by CHASE Doctoral Training Partnership.
