Climate change is happening. Often Climate Change is experienced as sudden extreme events, however we are experiencing a long term transition leading to many slow onset events. To help communities which are particularly vulnerable to these slow onset harms innovate and adapt, the Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre has developed a range of innovative interactive tools which help people explicate their hopes and fears, and reframe the present. This demonstration workshop will showcase three virtual tools: Rant, Cartoon Gallery, and a Time Capsule engage-ment. Participants will try these tools together, learn about how they have been applied, and discuss their potential value in promoting planetary well-being over long-term futures. Please note, RCRC will present virtually. In-person participants will need their own laptop, tablet or smartphone in order to try the tools. 90 minute workshop.
