Online-Training: Escape Game in Worms
26 August 2025, 16 – 18
Online
In this online training, the German city of Worms demonstrates how citizens can be successfully sensitised to climate issues.
In Worms and Metz, an innovative concept for a live escape room was jointly developed to playfully sensitize people to the topic of climate change and thus reach new target groups. Groups of 3-6 participants aged 16 and over are sent on a journey through time to the year 2050 to solve the puzzle of how humanity can be saved from climate change. The team dives into the world of climate researchers Blue and Green for an hour to search for secret hiding places and decipher the code.
In this online training course, multipliers from municipal facilities, schools and other non-commercial (education) institutions learn about how to recreate the Escape Room. In the training, the concept is presented in detail, experiences from multiple implementations are depicted and recommendations for the independent implementation of this creative tool for climate communication are given. The guidebook will also be explained and insights into the media database will be provided.
The team from the TANDEM climate partnership between the city of Worms and the Eurométropole Metz in France developed the game for the 2019 Energy Transition Week. A guidebook was written so that the open offer for education for sustainable development can be replicated and also offered free of charge at other locations. The revised guide & access to the media database will be available from mid-August 2025 and can be requested via klima@worms.de in German, French and English, which is recommended in preparation for this course.
