Progress report for
Restore the Mesoamerican Coral Reef
Achievement at a glance
Through technological tools such as Virtual Reality, we have been able to sensibilize a segment of the population that doesn't have access to scuba gear, training and PADI certification, through an immersive underwater RestoreCoral virtual reality experience. This content has been showcased in international festivals such as: SXSW (Austin - Texas, USA) , Burning Man (Black Rock City - Nevada, USA), SONAR (Barcelona - Catalonia, Spain), Day Zero (Tulum - Quintana Roo, Mexico ) and Bahidor (Las Estacas - Morelos, Mxico).We ve been able to reduce the technological gap between rural and urban communities, especially within millennials and younger generations, inside the Mayan territories of Quintana Roo with our Conscient VR Experience. For this effort, we were awarded with MTVs Agents of Change Chucky Award (MTV Agentes de Cambio.), which recognizes projects and people whose work have positive outcomes on educational, environmental and social matters.
