The ocean, our one global interconnected body of water we all share and depend on, is essential to life on earth. We are connected to the ocean but the pollution of the marine environment is also closely connected to humans. An understanding of the ocean and the role we play is a part in the solution of the crisis.

Increased Ocean Literacy

Ocean literacy is to understand the oceans influence on you and your influence on the ocean. Ocean literacy help us to make informed and responsible decisions regarding the ocean and its resources. While it can be hard to grasp the environmental crisis, Virtual Reality allows us to take the perspective of the nature itself. This research is about the use of Virtual reality to improve environmental education. Come and enjoy an experience you cannot get anywhere else!

During the event ther will also be an ongoing research study. You can contribute to the study if you like.
