  4. Government description • You will receive your budget at the beginning of each year. • When a shock hits, you can provide emergency aid: • All but one of you may approach the farmers and give aid: ask how many assets the farmer has and give aid when a farmer has 0 assets • Give no more than 2 assets per farmer. • Approach farmers individually - You are not allowed to approach multiple farmers at the same time • During a shock, people are hard to reach: anyone you approach, will cost you 2 assets, to be paid to the financial controller. • Directly pay the financial controller after each farmer you approach. • You have 30 seconds • Farmers with 0 assets after emergency aid become inactive farmers: • These farmers are inactive for at least 1 year: at the end of the next year you can activate them by giving them 2 assets per farmer. • If you have no assets left to give to these farmers, they can’t return in the game • You don’t receive income from inactive farmers.

  5. New rule: identification • You are able to gain information about the assets of the farmers • At the cost of 1 asset per farmer you can ask the farmer how many assets he/she has. • Pay to the financial controller, not to the farmers. • You are not allowed to approach only 1 farmer per round. Investing in information means investing in a group of farmers (ask the facilitator for the minimum number of farmers) • To help you remember which farmers you approached and how many assets they have, these approached farmers go to the area’s in the middle of the room marked 0-6. These numbers indicate the number of assets of the farmer(s) in the area.

  6. New rule: social protection • You are able to activate a social protection system: • You are able to give extra assets to farmers before a shock might hit in order to make them more resilient against a shock. • If social protection is activated, the ‘poor’ farmers (with up to two assets) you are connected to (in the numbered areas of the room) receive 1 asset per year, each year (= they move 1 area up).

  7. Financial controller description • At the beginning of each round: give income to the government. (= fixed amount + 1x number of active farmers) • During emergency aid: collect 2 assets per approached farmer form the government • During identification of farmers: collect 1 asset per farmer with whom the government makes a connection • When the government activates social protection: make sure the government pays 1 asset per connected farmer per year. • In smaller groups, the government can give the assets directly to the farmers and then the farmers move 1 area up. • In larger groups, the farmers move 1 area up and the government pays the social protection assets to the financial controller.
