Planet Vivo

For ages: 8-11 – Languages: EN-DE-NL-FR-PT – Rating:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Free game.

A team game about five ecosystems where players face challenges to learn about the threats to nature and how to protect it.

The game board shows five damaged ecosystems where life struggles to survive. Each round, the poles, forests, oceans, savannahs, and deserts send out SOS calls. Players must respond to each one and solve the challenges needed to bring these ecosystems back to health!

Puzzle to restore Ecosystems

When a group completes a challenge, they earn a puzzle piece. If they don’t succeed, they get a blank piece instead. At the end, all the pieces are assembled to reveal a transformed scene: the ecosystems are healed or the damage has been stopped. Students also receive an uplifting message about how they can help protect all forms of life around them.

Fair Climate Policy

For ages: 10-14 – Languages: NL-FR – Rating:⭐⭐⭐⭐ Free game.

In areas already affected by the climate crisis, droughts, floods, and storms are ruining many crops like grain, corn, vegetables, fruit, and coffee. This causes farmers to lose their main food and income. They become more vulnerable and poverty grows.

I Fight for a Fair Climate Policy

Pupils can explain why climate change poses a risk to farmers worldwide and express their indignation about this. They learn how to take action in their own local environments, explain why collective protest works and explain why fair trade rules contribute to the farmers’ risilience in relation to climate challenges.

Know your Pollinators

For ages: 9-15 – Languages: EN et cetera – Rating:⭐⭐⭐ Free game.

Crops and wildflowers need a rich diversity of wild pollinators. Managed honeybees are just one species and are outnumbered by over 2,000 species of wild bees in Europe. It is a big risk to rely on one species, such as honeybees, to pollinate plants. Changing climate and disease can wipe out a single species, so a diversity of pollinators ensures that there are plenty of reserves ready to do the job. To ensure good pollination of our food crops and wildflowers, we need to support a wide diversity of different pollinators across Europe. Rules, discussion tips, quiz, excursion.

Bees and hoverflies

Pollinators help plants to reproduce. When they visit flowers, they transfer pollen between the male and female parts of plants so that seeds and fruit can grow. In Europe, pollinators are mostly insects, but we need the wind for cereal crops. Bees and hoverflies are top of the list, but butterflies, moths, some beetles and other flying insects are also important. There are thousands of different types of wild pollinators in Europe, all with an important job to do. Why are they in danger? Numbers of wild pollinators are declining around Europe.
