Welcome to Planet C-Play Again?

an immersive game workshop

designed to make you rethink your beliefs
and empower you as an Architect of Change.

Step into a world where the fate of the planet
hangs in the balance.
A world where collective action and ecological
transition are not mere buzzwords,
but urgent calls for survival.

In a time when the fragility of our environment
and polarization of our societies are painfully evident,
we invite you to embark on a journey like no other.

Explore the barriers and levers that shape collective action,
and discover how your choices can
profoundly impact the world around you.

Because, after all, there is no Planet B.

What is Planet C-Play Again?

Planet C takes you to an unknown landscape in transition.

Survival, thriving, and preservation are at the core of the seemingly simple challenge that Planet C presents. But don’t be deceived by its simplicity, for the world in which you find yourself offers little control. And you are not alone. Alongside fellow players, you will navigate this evolving terrain, where every decision and action matters.

Planet C is not just a game.

It is a collective learning process and an opportunity to reshape the narrative of our future. 

Through this interactive workshop, you will gain the knowledge and skills necessary to become an Architect of Change, a champion of ecological transition. 

Planet C is an immersive experience.

Experience the power of collective action, discover room for win-win solutions, and forge connections with like-minded individuals who share your commitment to the planet.

Planet C is rich in experiential learning.

In the debriefing we link the game to reality! After the game, we help you to reflect on your experiences in the game. Together, we will identify challenges and barriers encountered, as well as the strategies that enabled you to overcome the challenges. We then translate these experiences into lessons for reality and link it with relevant theoretical content.

The time to act is now.
Will you rise to the challenge?
Will you overcome the obstacles that lie ahead?

Our aim is to make people play & understand

Who can take part?

Planet C is for everyone!

And all those who want to unlock collective power and overcome polarisation!

 

We have played it with authorities, managers, students, citizens, indigenous communities in the Amazon rainforest, researchers all over the world, experts, journalists, consultants, game-enthusiasts and game-sceptics.

 

No specific kowledge is needed to take part. We tailor the session to match participants’ experience and interest.

Who are we?

Planet C is carried by a Collective of experts and an amazing community of facilitators that join forces to transform the society from within.

 

The Collective hosts researchers, experts and facilitators from French and Swiss research institutes, universities, associations and consultancies. The Collective is led by LEAF Inspiring Change, a transformation consultancy and spin-off of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich.

We are experts in the fields of ecology, social justice and natural resource management, and are experienced in faciliating immersive processes and creating a safe space for learning to happen.

 

Our assets are:

  • a scientific data base validated by publications
  • a decentralized community of facilitators
  • a web-app to play in presence and online
  • training modules for facilitators
The underlying concept of Planet C is based on years of R&D on participatory foresight and collective decision-making tools in the field**.

Together, let us explore and imagine ways
towards a more resilient, cohesive world.

I was suprised by the immersion in the game, despite an ultra-minimalist game board; the excitement and passion the game unleashes; by the desire to optimize everything, and the understanding that even with seemingly simple rules, it's not easy.
Maelle Dellay
But what a surprise! In organizing this workshop, we were confident we'd have a good time with the participants, but our expectations were exceeded! It's an interesting game, a well-constructed tool, and the lessons learned are critical to the success of the social-ecological transition. Bravo!
David Roy
It's a game that makes you realise just how much we need to re-assemble as citizens to find the pathways to the Anthropocene together and at our local level. I could also say this is an experience of "dancing with system".
Damien Jourdan
It's a great workshop for experimenting with the management of commons such as resources, biodiversity, water and even atmospheric CO2.
Olivier Menicot
I am amazed how a game about ecology transformed effectively into a game about how to interpret collective intelligence.
D.R
Make it widely available to public and private decision-makers!
Adam Forrai
A very rich experience. You come out with a deep understanding of what can happen in context of self-governance, and of the inner workings of a group.
Isabell Forestier
The game helps to raise awareness of the need for action and to appreciate the different aspects of cooperation (understanding, dialogue, acceptance, organisation, etc.).
P.M.
It's an interactive, collaborative game that uses collective intelligence to manage resources. It is a socio-political experience with a very concrete link to reality despite its simple rules.
A.N.
