Climate Fresk Citizens' Workshop

- Description:

Citizens' Workshop: Climate Change Through a Climate Fresk Lens
The Climate Fresk is a French nonprofit founded in December 2018 by Professor Cédric Ringenbach. Climate Fresk’s aim is to raise public awareness about climate change and at the same time facilitate participants into taking action against climate change.
The 3 hour adult workshop is intended to be simple, fun, visual, creative and engaging and yet at the same time informative and transformative. It is based on 42 cards that summarize the work of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change). Participants create a fresco, hence "fresk", by laying out and connecting the cards to reveal the interconnectedness of the “causes” and “consequences” of climate change. Ample time is left at the end of the session for the participants to explore opportunities for action.
The workshop is provided by trained facilitators and the international success of the Climate Fresk format speaks for itself. Over 1.9 million people have now participated in a workshop with 85k+ going on to be trained as facilitators. Workshops are available in over 162 countries and 45+ languages.
Climate Fresk (world) – Climate Fresk
Climate Fresk workshops are relatively new to Ottawa/Gatineau and the local organizers hope for a broad-based and expansive growth similar to what has happened internationally.
Whether you're exploring these topics for the first time or seeking to deepen your understanding, this workshop offers valuable insights and fosters community connections. Ages 17+
