The Climate Fresk is a French nonprofit organization founded in December 2018 whose aim is to raise public awareness about climate change. It proposes a collaborative serious game using 42 cards where the participants draw a fresco, hence "fresk", which summarizes the work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. As of 2023, over a million people have participated.
Origins and aims
[edit | edit source]The Climate Fresk was created in 2015 by Cédric Ringenbach, former director of The Shift Project from 2010 to 2016, to raise public awareness about climate change.[1][2] In December 2018, he created an organization to spread the game and train facilitators.[3][better source needed]
Functioning of the workshop
[edit | edit source]The workshop lasts three hours and is divided into three distinct phases.[4] The first phase consists in discovering and linking the cards by cause-consequence relationships to build the Fresk [5] as explained in the IPCC reports.[1][2][6] The second phase is creative: the participants decorate the Fresk and choose a title.[5] The last phase is a debrief enabling a discussion about players' feelings, positions, questions and both individual and collective solutions.[1][7][8]
Audience
[edit | edit source]The workshops are open to everyone but the game has been initially distributed to higher education organisations and companies.[9]
In 2023, more than 1 million people have completed the workshop. In 2025, more than 2 million have.
