While the international community had just 1,650 Freskers at the end of 2021, it now has over 6,000 facilitators, spread across more than 55 countries! Thanks to them, more than 96,000 participants were able to attend a workshop outside France.
The community in France remains Climate Fresk’s main driving force as of today, with its 28,000 facilitators having spread climate education to over 679,000 people. However, the increase in the international community’s influence is also significant, as the proportion of workshop participants outside of France keeps on growing.
This quantitative development has gone hand in hand with a notable improvement in skills! While 34 new country coordinators have joined the NGO’s international community, securing a presence in 14 new countries, more and more participants have passed their belts. Congratulations to our 34 new green belts and 3 new blue belts, who will considerably add to our training capabilities worldwide!
To ensure the best possible support for this expansion, the team of permanent staff has also grown. We were 16 in January 2022: we’re now a team of 35, with 9 people specially devoted to the needs of the international community. Among them, two project leaders are providing back-up to the British and Swiss communities. We will present the team to you next month!
