Result description
As climate change continues to impact communities worldwide, “Our Climate Story” is designed to engage citizens of all ages in the fight against various hazards. This innovative, interactive and educational board game provides an exciting, hands-on experience that brings climate science and sustainability issues into the everyday lives of players, encouraging both individual and collective actions to reduce carbon emissions and build climate resilience. Players begin by creating a map of their community, identifying local hazards, and imagining sustainable solutions. As they move across the board using various modes of transportation – such as walking, cycling, or driving – players learn about the consequences of their choices on CO2 emissions and the environment. The game allows players to create a climate narrative specific to their own community, highlighting the unique environmental challenges they face.
It is possible craft a story for a specific local area or explore existing climate stories from the I-CHANGE Living Labs in Barcelona, Bologna, Jerusalem, Amsterdam, Genova, Ouagadougou, and Dublin.
