ABOUT
For the United Nations Department of Political and Peacebuilding
Affairs, we have developed an application that enables users to gain
valuable insights into the socio-economic and cultural landscape of
Chad Province.
Our goal was to go beyond traditional storytelling and offer users an active role in the narratives unfolding within this dynamic region!

CHALLENGE
When we began working with a global organization like the United
Nations, we realized that the presence of a large number of
interested parties can bring certain challenges, such as diverse
perspectives, priorities, and expectations. Additionally, the strict
deadlines required efficient management of our time and resources to
ensure the timely delivery of project milestones.
SOLUTION
Chad 360 VR Overview is a 360-degree video player designed for use
with virtual reality headsets. This video set transports users
directly to the heart of Chad province and serves as a virtual
passport, immersing users in a compelling narrative focused on the
compassionate acceptance of Sudanese refugees by the people of
Chad.
Despite a diverse range of stakeholders and strict deadlines, our
team’s effective communication played a pivotal role in the successful
completion of the project within the designated timeframe. We worked
with various teams from that UN department directly to address visual
content, audio, flow, and more.
As a testament to our collaborative efforts, the United Nations representatives received the desired outcome — an immersive experience that surpasses the possibilities offered by traditional media such as articles or videos.

Technological Approach
The Chad 360 VR Overview application relies on Unity for its robust
development framework, ensuring a seamless and realistic user
experience. Additionally, Oculus SDK integration allows us to tap into
the power of virtual reality and create an environment where users
feel as if they are physically present in Chad province.
