"This photo shows a female middle school student from an indigenous village in Brazil wearing a VR headset. This photo was taken by Zaz Productions during a large-scale project in Brazil targeting digital inclusion and environmental awareness. The project aimed to reduce the gap between private and public schools, allow the students to engage with technology, and learn about human actions in mitigating climate change causes and consequences. A total of 12 thousand middle and high school students from low-income and indigenous communities in Brazil participated in the project. This was a collaboration between the Virtual Human Interaction Lab at Stanford and Instituto Edp in Brazil."
