Project 3: Education in the Eye of the Storm

A VR and Interactive Web experience was produced by the World Bank with the Global
Partnership for Education (GPE) in partnership with UNICEF Mozambique. The immersive
project takes the audience through a VR narrative when Cyclone Freddy affected Mozambique
and its impact in the community. The project highlights how children, their families, and
communities are responding and adapting to climate related events.

The virtual deployment was taken to important climate related events via VR headsets and
through an immersive web on mainstream social media.
