Cost: Free

Take a virtual reality journey around our planet and learn how human activity disrupts the balance of nature.

NEXUS is an interactive VR documentary that brings these ideas to life by showing the connections between water, food, and energy through a story and real-world examples. The aim is not to present the 'right' solutions to environmental issues: instead, we propose a framework that empowers people of all ages and backgrounds to see and communicate the system-level impacts of human actions in the world.

This event will showcase the ways in which the NEXUS framework can explain human interactions with the world and empower us to live in better harmony with nature.

In collaboration with Steamed Egg VR, attendees will be able to explore, reflect and discuss the complexities involved in building a more sustainable world, by being immersed into locations around the world through VR headsets.
