Virtual Stories: Real World Change

Virtual reality has changed the way we look at gaming and entertainment, but can it change the way we look at some of the world’s most pressing issues?

Gabo Arora has travelled from a refugee camp in Jordan to a slum in Liberia recovering from the effect of an Ebola outbreak, all the while crating VR films that build empathy, bridge distances, and inspire people to action. In this session, Gabo will discuss how he is working alongside the United Nations to make virtual reality, and new technologies in storytelling, a catalyst for real world change.
