Abstract [en]

Climate change is one of the most acute problems humanity is facing nowadays. At thesame time, the school curriculum in Ukraine in most cases does not include up-to-date, practicallyoriented knowledge about climate change threats. For this reason this study describes examples ofwell-known climate change games, translated and adaptated for use in Ukrainian schools and aimsto analyze role playing games about climate change as a tool that can be used in Education for Sustainable Development (ESD). The article describes 12 games selected from 5 open-access sources(like WWF, Red Cross Climate Centre), which were used in pilot studies conducted in 5 Ukrainianschools in order to estimate their applicability in the school educational program for biological disciplines. The results indicate a significant effect of raising the level of understanding of climate changethreats and solutions; the proposed games can efficiently cover the educational gap in this field.
