Description:

Serious games support climate change understanding and decision-making 

Climate change effects are accelerating, as is the need for appropriate actions. We know that by making sound choices now and in the future, we can foster climate resilience and reduce risks and costs for future generations and ourselves.

Come and join us at  Te Ao Mārama - Tauranga City Library for lunch time sessions: 12.00 – 1.30pm Wednesday (18 September) & Friday (20 September) to try the serious adaptation games.

The games are based on the principles of adaptation pathways, a strategic planning approach that:

• allows for uncertainty and change 
• encourages us to imagine multiple futures 
• takes into account what is important to individuals and communities 
• helps us to consider the many different options in front of us, how long these might be effective for and to understand when we might need to change tack

The game will help you understand:
