How to use

  • This resource helps students understand climate policy modeling and impact assessment. Students gain skills in analyzing climate scenarios, understanding policy trade-offs, and evaluating climate action benefits across multiple sectors.
  • Best suited for graduate-level courses in climate science, environmental policy, or sustainable development. Works well in workshop settings where students can actively engage with the Scenario Explorer tool.
  • Faculty should review the Scenario Explorer interface before implementation. Consider preparing guided exercises for students to compare different scenarios and analyze specific impacts.
  • The platform connects to complementary datasets and research from the NAVIGATE project.

Teaching format tip

Simulation/Serious Game

Establish clear learning objectives before gameplay and debrief systematically afterward. Students should document decision-making processes, unexpected outcomes, and strategic adaptations during play. Use multiple rounds to test different approaches and compare results. Connect game mechanics to real-world systems, helping students transfer insights from virtual to actual contexts.
