HUMAN TRAFFICKING
TRAPPED: A VR DETECTIVE STORY (ages 12 & up) This is a virtual reality experience. In the experience, you direct and control an interactive story and discover clues to how Lisa, a 14-year-old girl from the suburbs, became a victim through manipulation and coercion. With the use of an immersive, virtual reality (VR) headset, users “choose their own path”. The experience gives you a first person perspective of how anyone can become trapped, like Lisa. You will have a better understanding of human vulnerabilities. You will experience what feels like very real situations, and better understand how trafficking can happen to anyone. Traffickers take advantage of the things that make us all human. The VR experience is about 15 minutes followed by training and discussion. THE VR EXPERIENCE IS AVAILABLE IN JULY 2023 |
