Bridging the Gap by Milad Mozari

Bridging the Gap by ODL Fellow Milad Mozari is a series of virtual reality experiences for resettlement in collaboration with the Salt Lake City chapter of the International Rescue Committee and former clients. As part of the Cultural Orientation modules and part of the Education Program, the immersive videos are catered for newly arrived refugees, and address the digital literacy gaps within the community. The videos are a means to allow IRC clients to navigate spaces and services without the fear of running into language barriers or triggering trauma they may experience in their new environments.
