(Washington, DC): Last summer, the Environmental Law Institute (ELI) announced that “Cards Against Calamity,” created by 1st Playable in partnership with ELI and the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration, received a gold ranking for table top learning games designed for education or training at the 2017 International Serious Play Awards. We’re pleased to announce that the game is now available for sale.
Coastal storms, marine debris, flooding, or any other possible troubles could bring economic or environmental disaster to an unprepared coastal community. “Cards Against Calamity” is a board game that teaches stakeholders about the various strategies they can use to build a more resilient community as a means of “bouncing back and building beyond.” The game is won through cooperation, not competition, requiring players to role play community members in various sectors such as Commercial Fishing, Services, Industry, and Tourism and to negotiate plans that will both strengthen their community and each other.
