At the heart of the KTCC process is an interactive section where people can share ideas, generate discussion and imagine a better world. Here, the group can brainstorm, engage and learn from each other.

Quadrant Exercise

The suggestion in the KTCC Toolkit, on pgs. 24-25 of the presenter slides, supported by pages 28-31 in the facilitator guide, is to lead what we call a Quadrant Brainstorm, ideally capturing suggestions as they come up and finding connections between quadrants.

We suggest you start by asking the following questions or a variation of them. Then, capture the ideas the group shares or suggest some answers yourself. You could try writing in a screen-shared document or have attendees use chat.

  • Questions:
    • What actions on all levels do we need to adequately address the climate emergency and ensure a livable future for all?
    • What do we need put in place to create a greener, healthier and just future, one that ensures we leave no one behind?

See quadrant exercise visuals below for some examples and ideas....


You could finish the brainstorm with a few visioning questions for the exercise "How do we Build a Better World?" Some examples:

  • What does a good, low-carbon future look like to you?
  • How do we build a new, positive story about the future?
  • What gives us hope?
  • How might we make a low-carbon future work best for everyone?

Find more potential questions on Pg. 31 of the Facilitator Resources. Visual example below.
