The Miami DO Tank gathers people together to learn how gaming can move communities to prepare and become more resilient to climate change impacts. The organizers will lead participants in playing two exciting scientifically constructed games to demonstrate this concept. Tied in with the games, the organizers will explain the 6-step design-thinking process. The organisers will train participants on how to use this methodology to create rapid, innovative solutions for addressing the challenges of rising sea levels.

The Field Innovation Team is a 501(c)3 that responds to crises while simultaneously working on disaster preparedness and disaster risk reduction at local, state, national, and international levels. FIT's mission is "Innovating real-time in disasters." The Miami DO Tank is a short program that helps communities by mobilizing actors and organizations within South Florida to support the expected outcome of the United Nations Hyogo Framework for Action 2005 - 2015.
