Play Your Part: Vaccine Ecosystem

URGE
Interdisciplinary work comes with specific challenges, even more so when you must respond to a crisis.
We designed URGE to force specialists out of their professional silos and team up to address the greatest challenge of their careers. The team must race against time to create a coherent image of the threat their world faces and develop scenarios to protect the population. For this, they must come out of their comfort zone and start making decisions as a team.
The Netherlands School of Public Health commissioned Pandemos to develop this game for their Public Health Curriculum.
