This role-playing card game will reveal how global events, whether political decisions, international aid, or conflicts, ripple across the globe and shape your future.

Empathy is Solidarity
In a world where decisions made thousands of miles away can profoundly impact our daily lives, Ripple Effect: The Yemen Crisis invites you to step into the shoes of various characters—from Yemenis to Dutch people and international people.
By engaging in play, sharing experiences, and reflecting on them, you will uncover the power of global action and learn about our interconnectedness. Together, we can comprehend how human rights and advocacy can foster change, positively impacting the lives of those affected by the Yemen crisis.
Join us before or after the exhibition next door: Stories of Healing and Hope.
