The city of Vidin on the Danube is hosting the educational game "Climate Fresco", which travels around the world and has been translated into 35 languages by volunteers in over 50 countries. 

The goal is to present scientific knowledge about the global climate to more people in an interesting and entertaining way. For several months now, the educational board game has been in Bulgaria as an idea of Toma Zaimov and thanks to the Wind of Change association. 

Climate Fresco is a game with 42 cards, each representing a climate change factor. Thanks to it, the participants go through a fascinating process that helps them discover the connection between the causes and consequences related to climate change and look for possible solutions to get out of the crisis. 

The duration of the game is three hours, and the main goal of the "Climate Fresco" is to educate 2 million people worldwide, which was achieved in April this year. 

For Bulgaria, the number is 10,000 and the project, in which 51 events are planned throughout the country, will reach up to 1,400 people in Vidin alone.
