Climate Fresk Workshops help participants uncover the implications of a changing climate in a play-based session that is iterative, accessible and meaningful.

Climate Fresk is an internationally recognised workshop, which objectively presents only established scientific facts. Using a game-like methodology, it helps attendees uncover for themselves what climate change means personally, and to our society. So, suppose you're keen to find your way beyond the rhetoric of doomsayers or inaction of denialists or help family, friends and colleagues gain a more balanced perspective about climate change. In that case, this session is designed for you.

Over three hours, we focus on three connected topics:

  • Understanding the basics of the science, and its implications for you, society and the economy

  • Making space for all the emotions associated with facing this information

  • What to do next

The presenters will match established climate scientific information and scenarios with the thoughts of key opinion leaders and leverage the collective intelligence of those attending to help clarify and right-size what seems consistently complex and overwhelming.

More than 1.6 million people globally have already taken part in the Climate Fresk challenge and now is your chance to learn more, get empowered and take action.

Timing:

  • 5:15-5:30 pm: Arrive and meet other participants

  • 5:30-8:30 pm: Workshop!

Light snacks will be provided to keep you energised during the night. Bring a colleague, friend, or family member along!

This event is part of Sydney Climate Action week; a series of community-led events from all aspects of the climate action ecosystem running from the 13-17 May 2024. This event is proudly supported by City of Sydney, Greenhouse and Boundless.
