Insights, Resilience, Innovation, and Immersive Climate Action 🌎

We're excited to spotlight one of our most impactful VR experiences yet: Rising Together: Stories of Resilience in a Changing Climate.

Led by the visionary Jola Ajibade, PhD, this groundbreaking project emerged from a collaboration with Portland State University, Emory University, the National Science Foundation (NSF), and NSF NCAR - The National Center for Atmospheric Research. Rising Together brings powerful stories of climate resilience to life, offering an immersive perspective on adaptation and community strength in the face of change.

A finalist for Best Climate Change Solution at the 2024 AWE Auggie Awards, Rising Together takes you inside the lives of two teenagers navigating the realities of climate change. More than just data and projections, this immersive experience creates a powerful emotional connection to the challenges communities face worldwide.
