After 5 minutes of brainstorming, we construct a timeline together in plenary. </p><p>Once everyone is happy with the timeline, we identify 5 or 6 of the most significant events. People choose which event they can remember most </p><p>GOEDVERWACHT WORKSHOP 2 TARYN PEREIRA clearly, and form groups based on those events. There might be a group that doesn’t clearly remember any of these events. They can think about very hot days or very cold days that they can remember, even from the recent past.</p><p>In groups, think about the following questions:  How did this affect you and your family, and what did you do about it?  How did this affect Goedverwacht as a community?  What organizations/ institutions responded to this extreme event, and what did they do?  Was there anything that should have been done, that wasn’t done? How could their responses have been more effective?</p><p>Groups then present the main points from their discussions in plenary.</p><p>Materials: Flipcharts, pens, prestik</p><p>Facilitated discussion: climate change, Goedverwacht, and what can we do about it? 15h25 – 16h05</p><p>Facilitated by: Stephen – with main action points captured by Taryn.</p><p>Description: Connections are made between all that has been raised and discussed today. Remind everyone that we are talking about global climate change, but we now have some very specific projections for Goedverwacht. We can learn from past experiences of extreme weather, particularly about the institutions that have responded to extreme weather in the past. We can start to think about what needs to be in place to prepare for climate change.</p><p>Materials: Flipchart, pens.</p><p>16h05: Ten minute leg stretch!</p><p>Summary, next steps, evaluation: 16h15 – 16h30</p><p>Facilitated by: Taryn</p><p>Description: Reminder of actions from the day, questions still hanging needing a response.
