IUCN, the International Union for Conservation of Nature, is a network which represents more than 1000 organisations and 10.000 experts and scientist worldwide, that all work together across boundaries and cultures in solving some of the planet's greatest challenges, conserving biodiversity and the well-being of all species.
IUCN has achieved many great results in the 60 years, that the organisation has existed but the world still faces grave challenges in a rapid changing world. The IUCN council held in January the 31st a two day retreat in Evian, France, to discuss the role and opportunities of IUCN in the future.
Bigger Picture was a part of the Council Retreat as graphic facilitators creating three visual walls during the two days. Furthermore after a introduction to Graphic Facilitation, the participants contributed with their own illustrations of the challenges that their organisation faces. Besides the personal contribution to the shared picture the IUCN Council started to build a unique visual language database together with Bigger Picture to be used in communication of the complex research and knowledge that IUCN holds.
