Animation FAQ

Do participants have to do a Climate Fresk workshop before participating in the 2tonnes workshop?

Is it possible to lead a half-face-to-face half-distance workshop?

Can we facilitate for strangers?

Do participants have to do a Climate Fresk workshop before participating in the 2tonnes workshop?

Not necessarily. The Climate Fresk helps to understand the causes and consequences of climate change, to have an overview of the phenomenon and to understand its extent. 2tonnes makes it possible to project oneself into the low carbon transition which makes it possible to limit climate change.

These 2 workshops are complementary: the Climate Fresk allows you to understand why to act, while 2tons allows you to understand how to act. We recommend doing one then the other, however it is not necessary to have acquired the knowledge of the Climate Fresk to participate to the 2 tonnes workshop.

We regularly receive participants who have not participated in a Climate Fresk and the workshop remains very relevant!

Is it possible to lead a half-face-to-face half-distance workshop?

Yes, but it is much more complicated:

You must have a place on the screen in a corner to display the video
It is necessary to integrate the participants online, in particular during debates and debriefs
When entering actions, it is a bit complicated because when you request the data from the server, it overwrites the data from the host's computer. So, either you have to update and retrieve the data of people online, then enter those of face-to-face participants, or some participants have to retrieve the actions of people online so that they can be entered on the host's computer. So it quickly becomes difficult if there are a lot of people online.

In the medium term, we may have participant access on smartphones which will make this type of format more accessible.

Can we facilitate for strangers?

Yes of course!

This is particularly possible with the 2tonnes association which organizes "General Public" workshops open to all.

These workshops are either online or face-to-face, and can be led by all facilitators. Thus, you can either propose a slot and a place where you are available, so that we can create an event, or add you to an event already on the agenda! Please consult the "I want to facilitate via 2tonnes association" page to know more.
