SUMMARY:Humanizing The Virtual World: Cultural Treatment In VR
LOCATION:VRChat — TheatreBaffo
DESCRIPTION:Twelve million young patients across Europe face illness, isolation, and the loss of familiar freedoms during hospital stays. How can art and immersive technology restore agency and hope? This session explores how live, artistic encounters in virtual worlds can ease anxiety, foster resilience, and open new perspectives. Jo Adrian Haavind, Founder of InPresence shares insights from a pioneering 2025 pilot with Norwegian Hospital Clowns and partners, and outlines the path toward scaling this transformative approach across European healthcare.
