Has anyone done #ClimateFresk and is it any good? I have the opportunity to sign up for some training, but I'll be honest I'm very involved in this sort of area and _I_ don't fully understand what "fresk" means. And I'm a bit wary of the utility of a climate communication workshop where even the name of the workshop requests understanding special terminology. Has anyone done it and is it worth it?

@afewbugs Makes more sense in the original French in that the word "fresque" is common and more metaphorical speech is usual.
In passing, i can't believe they chose such a terrible name in English, it's clear they fell into the typical French trap of not having native speakers of the target language and thinking if a similar word exists, then it must mean the same.
@axx thank you, that suddenly makes a lot more sense!
@afewbugs Did it some years ago, thought it was great, learned a lot, forgot most of it.
Fresk makes probably more sense in French, it's just that you co-create a large-ish visual representation of the interconnected mechanisms and therefore, problems.
