LET'S PLAY WORLD CLIMATE!

Globart Scholarship Programme for the Days of Transformation
27–31 August 2025, Melk Abbey, in cooperation with Weitblick GmbH

‍

The Days of Transformation 2025 are dedicated to the theme ACHTUNG (attention/respect). Under this umbrella, experts, artists, civil society activists and writers explore the boundary between alarmism and social cohesion – a field of tension that is becoming a central social challenge, especially in the context of climate change and sustainability.

‍

Many people despair at this challenge. We approach it with playful optimism and offer empowerment for our scholarship holders:

The World Climate Game© (Weltklimaspiel) in the 2025 scholarship programme fosters understanding of the complex climate crisis – through intuitive comprehensibility, experience-based learning and the presentation of solution strategies.

Guided by World Climate Game expert and game developer Matthias Mittelberger, the GLOBART scholarship holders take on the roles of decision-makers from business, politics and civil society. In an interactive board-based simulation, participants have one “century” to establish an economically, ecologically and socially sustainable social and economic order.

With the World Climate Game© as a tailor-made intervention for the scholarship programme at the Days of Transformation 2025, GLOBART makes a social, economic, philosophical and, above all, joyful contribution to the next generation of changemakers.
