Event Details
Join us for a fun, free and informative workshop that will help you understand climate change.
You will work as a team to find relationships between 42 climate cards. Each card represents a cause or effect of climate change. Together you will link the cards to build a collage that explains climate change. Collective intelligence and collaboration will get you to a solution!
This step-by-step, cooperative activity will help you work through the complexity of climate change. You will also get to be creating by decorating and naming your finished collage.
Climate Fresk is perfect for those who know that climate change is important, but feel that they would like to understand it more. There is no need for any previous climate knowledge; the workshop is a learning experience.
Climate Fresk is a French-based NGO with the aim to make climate science more accessible. More than 350,000 people have played worldwide.
You can read about a previous Climate Fresk workshop we delivered here.

Event Details
A partnership event between Plastic Free Fife and Greener Kirkcaldy.
Join this free workshop to learn about eco- and health-friendly period products and the benefits they offer compared to conventional plastic pads and tampons.
In a safe, friendly environment we will take attendees through a programme of presentations and discussions. We will discuss why period plastic is a problem, what the eco-friendly alternatives are, how to use them and where to get them. We’ll be demonstrating samples of the different products, discussing their pros and cons, and provide details of how to make your own pads.
This workshop is for all those who have periods or are approaching menstruating age are welcome. Under 16s should be accompanied by an adult.
We welcome attendees who have never considered reusable period products before, those who have occasionally tried them, as well as those who are already using reusable products but would like to hear about other options.

Event Details
Our Fife specific Climate Knowhow course will tell you all you need to know to confidently discuss the climate emergency and describe the actions we can all take to tackle it. We will look at the science, causes and impacts; and consider how climate change effects us in Fife. We will discuss individual and community climate action, as well as consider how to challenge the climate silence.
At the end of our course, you will have an awareness of the carbon costs and impacts of everyday activities and the ability and motivation to reduce emissions on an individual, community and organisational basis.
Our course runs over 2 half days of training.
Teas and coffees will be provided.
Tuesday 7th March 1.30pm – Climate Fresk
The first half of the training will be delivered using Climate Fresk. Participants work as a team to find the cause and effect relationships between 42 climate cards. They then use the cards to build a collage that explains climate change. It is a collaborative and creative approach. It is perfect for those who prefer active and visual learning. This session focuses on the science, causes and impacts of the climate emergency.
Tuesday 21st March 1.30pm – Taking Action
This session looks at climate solutions. We will look at what is being done nationally, in Fife and what we can do in our own lives. We finish by thinking about how best to talk about climate change.
