Bearing Witness: A commentary on climate action and immersive climate change exhibitions

Abstract

This commentary focuses on a new wave of virtual reality and immersive exhibitions on climate change, and the opportunities of such virtual reality experiences in strengthening climate change awareness, climate literacy and more active forms of participation in climate action. In this context is the evolving and crucial role of museums and cultural organisations in shaping and supporting our response to this urgent crisis through immersive and dynamic forms of narrative.
