Language Playground for Climate

An interactive bilingual climate workshop — part live demo, part language class, part climate game night.

Join North South Climate Dialogue (NSCD) for a hands-on bilingual climate workshop built around NSCD's new webgame. Participants use NSCD's free digital platform to explore climate vocabulary in English and Mandarin, test their understanding through Duolingo-style challenges, and collaborate with a language-exchange partner on translations that make climate policy clearer across cultures.

This is not a traditional workshop — it's a live demo, a language class, and a climate game night rolled into one. You're as much the teacher as the participant. Bring your own climate texts for a more personalized, collaborative experience.

No Mandarin experience or climate background is required. Whether you're into climate action, language learning, education, or just want to try something new, this workshop invites you to step inside NSCD's growing bilingual climate glossary.
