Climate Fresk Workshop at Waste & Recycling Vietnam Expo 2023: A Milestone in Climate Awareness

+ Time: November 24, 2023 + Venue: World Trade Center Binh Duong New City Expo + Language: Vietnamese + Facilitator: Duyen Le + Trang Nguyen + Mary Dam + Parker Vu + Tu Nguyen

A year ago, I participated in a Climate Fresk workshop at the Green Economy Forum & Exhibition (GEFE) 2022. Fast forward to 2023, and I had the privilege of hosting my own Climate Fresk workshop at another major industry event—Waste & Recycling Vietnam Expo 2023. This journey from participant to facilitator has been truly rewarding, demonstrating how climate education can grow within different communities.

At the expo, Climate Fresk was honored to have a dedicated booth, allowing us to introduce the workshop to visitors. To engage attendees, we also hosted a small interactive game, sparking curiosity and drawing attention to climate education.

The response was overwhelming—our session filled all five tables, marking the largest workshop I have ever facilitated. Participants came from diverse industries but shared a common concern for the environment and climate action.

The feedback was incredibly positive, reinforcing the impact of interactive climate education. This event would not have been possible without the strong support of RX Tradex, who helped make the workshop happen, and Limloop, who provided special gifts for our facilitators.
