UN SDG Action Campaign/Oculus MY World 360° Media Competition 2020 for Immersive media creators worldwide

Application Deadline: August 31st 2020

SUBMISSIONS NOW OPEN: CALLING CREATORS TO SHARE IMMERSIVE STORIES FOR A MORE SUSTAINABLE WORLD

Creators of all ages, countries and languages can bring the global community closer together by capturing actions that are making a difference in response to Covid-19, thereby sharing their vision of a post-pandemic world that meets the Sustainable Development Goals.
Use any type of media combinations—from combining pen and paper with an audio recording, to Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, or 3D design—that create an immersive story and connect with creators in other parts of the world to harness the universal creativity and solidarity.

 Oculus MY World 360° Media Competition recognize that many people are restricted to move freely in their communities in the common effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19. We encourage you to be creative within the context of your situation. Here are some guiding questions that might be helpful as you get started.

• How are you or people in your community making a difference in the face of COVID-19?
• How do these issues get us closer to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals?
• What’s your vision for a world where the Goals are achieved?
