Conserving our Forests
Conserving Our Forests is an interactive game where small teams are tasked with creating a thriving woodland ecosystem native to Southeast Australia.
The teams will need to be strategic as they build their ecosystem one tile at a time into a large grid during several rounds. They are multiple strategies that each group could use to build their ecosystem and as they navigate through the game, they will discover the intricate relationships between various species, their habitats, and the delicate balance needed to maintain biodiversity.
The game is not just about winning, but also about understanding the importance of conservation and the role we can play in it.
Each team’s woodland functionality will be scored based on its diversity and the symbiotic relationships they manage to establish. While the team that constructs the most balanced and functional ecosystem will be declared the winner, every team’s ecosystem contributes to the entire group’s understanding of the fascinating and multifaceted aspects involved in forest conservation.
“Conserving Our Forests” is more than just a game; it’s an engaging and interactive learning experience. So, gather your team and let’s start building woodland ecosystems!
