I'm Mario Bentivenga

And this is my blog, where you will find what I study and strive for, and showcase my portfolio and CV experiences . It’s very likely, though, you’ll  mostly find passions I like to culture in my free time.

About Me

Striving to understand the world of tomorrow

Born in Eboli, Salerno, since a very young age I’ve been interested in a variety of topics, ranging from history, to board and video games, to space, the final frontier.

As a student, I hope to channel these interests to tackle the challenges of today (and tomorrow) world, from the climate crisis to the growing inequality we’re seeing worldwide

I am particularly passionate about the relationship between policy and economics, and how one can use both to allow positive change on the world.

In the meantime, I use my spare time to cultivate my passions, particulary board game design; I am very interested in seeing how games can be used to inspire policies, akin to generals who use wargames to prepare their troops.
