Ecological Renaissance
How can we build a low-emission, resilient and equitable world? Formulate your answers through the Ecological Renaissance!
In three hours, participants will develop a project around several of the 24 pillars of the Fresque, creating and sharing solutions for a new regenerative narrative, linked to the Sustainable Development Goals, the circular economy and social justice.
This workshop is the most adaptable to any type of audience, age and level of previous knowledge.
Deep Time Walk
What can a single step teach you about Earth’s 4.6-billion-year history? How does understanding Earth’s history change how we view the present? Join the Deep Time Walk Experience!
Step into the vast history of Earth on a unique journey that brings science, storytelling, and reflection together. This immersive workshop will deepen your understanding of planetary systems, evolution, and humanity’s place in time. By experiencing Earth’s story, you’ll gain a fresh perspective on the challenges and opportunities of the present. Take the walk and connect with the bigger picture of life on Earth!
Adaptation to Climate Change
Climate change is here. Its impacts are spreading and intensifying. What can you do locally, to adapt to it?
In three hours, the AdACCs provide the keys to collectively make the best possible choices and avoid maladaptation. Based on science (essentially the IPCC Group 2 report), they call on collective intelligence.
A full workshop lasts 3 hours, divided into 2 sequences: Sequence 1: Introducing the key concepts of adaptation, using typical examples associated with climate hazards and acquiring the method for making the right choices (approximately 1 h 30).
Sequence 2: Practical application of the method to a specific issue (approx. 1 h 30), chosen beforehand with the client, if possible.
Designing our Low-Carbon Lives
An original, low-tech workshop to discover the basic orders of magnitude and work as a team to design actions that are necessary, feasible and acceptable for the climate.
We need to rapidly reduce our carbon footprint. So how can we do this?
The Designing our low-carbon lives workshop offers some solutions using an original, visual, intuitive and low-tech tool. It’s a great opportunity for teams to build positive solutions and ideas.
The cards are both intuitive and eye-catching, enabling participants to discover in a short amount of time the orders of magnitude associated with our daily activities (food, transport, housing, etc.).
Head, heart & hands
All our work is based on:
Science
Providing undisputable, scientific data, based on reports such as the IPCC and IPBES
Collective intelligence
Learing together and sharing experiences and knowledge
Active listening
Creating a safe space to express and share emotions
Creativity
Engaging the creative part of the brain, to better assimilate
Action
Always dedicating part of the workshop on discusing and designing possible actions
I particularly appreciated Ana’s experience and skills in leading discussions on climate issues. I also really appreciated the practical, concrete advice on facilitating the workshops. The materials provided were of very high quality and even personalised post-workshop!
