Getting Started with Mini Simulations
CFR Education simulations put students in the shoes of policymakers facing the most pressing issues in international relations based on various hypothetical, historical, and current event scenarios.
These one- to two-day case studies require less time and preparation than extended simulations while offering different ways to engage your students.
