Negotiation Training

The Pasta Wars simulation: Coming soon, to a language near you!

The Pasta Wars, a prisoners' dilemma simulation game for teaching negotiation and conflict-related topics, has been translated into ten languages.

The simulation, complete with multilanguage pack and teachers guide, can be found here and used freely.
