The Interactive Climate Negotiation Role play game was used to train negotiators in the December Paris Climate Conference. Bob, who has experienced some of the training himself, will explain this powerful tool and guide us in experiencing a shortened version of it through small group interaction. He states: ” Participating as a negotiator or a special interest (i.e. role for fossil fuel companies) is amazingly real and can be transformative.” He notes that this negotiation process focuses on how everyone in the world (all parties) will be winners in addressing the climate issues and thus it promotes a sense of hope. Come join us in a great experience.
