Abstract
On Saturday, July 6, 2024, multiple local organisations in Barcelona, Spain mounted a protest to express their dissatisfaction with the degree to which overtourism in the city had resulted in unaffordable housing, congestion in public services, and the 'touristification' of local businesses. Students are asked to take on the role of Jaume Collboni, the Mayor of Barcelona City. In the wake of the protests, Collboni calls for an emergency conference, where he tells his colleagues from the city council and the tourism office that the protests cannot be allowed to continue, but meets objections from these colleagues.
