Google DEI VR Series — Immersive Training on Microaggressions & Inclusive Behaviour

an 8-part series of immersive VR experiences in collaboration with Google’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion team, aimed at tackling microaggressions and fostering empathy in the workplace. This project reimagined traditional DEI training by placing participants directly inside realistic, first-person scenarios where they experience subtle bias, power dynamics, and everyday exclusion as both targets and allies. 

Rather than passive lectures or checklists, the series uses high-fidelity virtual environments—such as meetings, performance reviews, and informal office interactions—built from real incidents shared by employees. Each experience shifts perspectives, allowing learners to recognise unconscious assumptions, practice responses, and build confident, inclusive behaviours in a safe, replayable setting. 

Early training outcomes showed strong engagement and measurable impact, with participants reporting greater awareness of bias, improved empathy across perspectives, and increased confidence to act in real situations—results that far exceeded traditional DEI methods. 

This work demonstrates how immersive technology can transform workplace learning at scale, driving deeper understanding, behavioural change, and inclusive culture building. It reflects my strength in blending human-centred design, technical execution, and social impact.
