Ieva Notturno participated in the launch of a new public policy computer game at the Brookings Institute in Washington last April. The game, called ‘The Fiscal Ship’, is an interactive educational game where you have a target for your fiscal ship to sail and you have to choose the cargo—all the policy goals and priorities you may want to put on it. The computer program helps you to articulate the goals, and it will tell you when and how they may conflict with each other. But you choose the direction of the ship and which goals and priorities you prefer. Enough said, just pull out your tablet and play it at www.fiscalship.org!
