Introduction: This activity is adapted from a map produced by the German organisations PowerShift and the Environment Institute Munich. Its aim is to look at the many different climate struggles around the globe and to consider and discuss their interconnectedness.
Step by step instructions: 1. Begin with a brainstorming about which climate struggles
people are aware of in plenary. As people call them out, place notes on the world map relating to their location. - Ask the question about what constitutes a climate movement? Are struggles for equality or against police violence also linked to climate activism for example? (15 mins)
2. Divide the group into smaller groups of around 3-5. Then ask each group to take 3 climate struggles to work on, either those from the brainstorming, or those provided in Annexe 1 16
