This is a speculative Virtual Reality onboarding program for conservation volunteers at the Daintree Rainforest. This design creates opportunity for team expansion, whilst conserving essential resources. Volunteers can download the training course, and complete it virtually using a Virtual Reality headset. By remotely training volunteers on Observation and Interaction skills, this means the charity can reallocate all resources previously used for training back to conservation tasks. Overall, the Daintree Rainforest benefits as a higher volume of conservation can be achieved, and this in turn will reduce CO2 levels in the atmosphere.

This immersive sensory experience provides a new angle for student support here at the University of Leeds. Based in the Treasures of Brotherton Gallery, this experience engages with therapeutic and neuroscience principles to calm down individuals in moments of stress. Users can work through 5 tailored sensory stations, which target individual senses to ground an anxious mind. With the Student Services experiencing an extremely high demand from the students, this project aims to reduce pressure on this team, and improve student wellbeing.
