RESIST/ANCE: Strategies for a Better World. The RESIST Project's Card Game (Resilience Tracker Sheets)

This is the Resilience Tracker document for RESIST/ANCE: Strategies for a Better World, a card game of collaborative, interactive play, aimed at developing the capacity to counter ‘anti-gender’ mobilisations.

This is a game of interactive play, aimed at developing capacity together to counter ‘anti-gender’ mobilisations, or Challenges. This game helps us do this by exploring how such mobilisations operate, the real-world impacts they have, and Strategies to resist them in a space where you can reflect, learn, and act together. The goal is to create collective long-term Resilience to build better worlds.

It is intended that this game might facilitate discussion and foster new understandings. To aid in this, you will find team discussion prompts in italics along the way, prompting engagement with the content of the cards.

RESIST/ANCE is an output of the RESIST Research Project, which sought to counter ‘anti-gender’ mobilisations. RESIST used 'anti-gender' mobilisations to describe organised opposition to recent social progress in gender equality, reproductive rights, and the rights and representation of LGBTIQ+ people.

This game is available for free as a .pdf download on the RESIST Zenodo Repository, and the RESIST Website; you can download it, print it, and play it!
