Atlantic Fellows for Equity in Brain Health

This piece is as playful, quirky and smart as the Fellows whose conversation it was born out of. It is a surrealist reflection on prioritizing imagination over memory in the context of dementia care.

What is XR?

Extended Reality (XR) stands for all real-and-virtual combined environments, including VR, AR and anything in between!  We believe the future landscape of social justice will be shaped by XR, just as those fighting for equity throughout history have harnessed the power of traditional technologies to uplift communities and ideas, we believe the fight for equity will be strengthened, fought and celebrated using emerging technologies. The combined catastrophes of the climate emergency and COVID-19 have compelled Atlantic Fellows to place a strategic focus on XR. As our community grows, we have a responsibility to create and explore innovative ways to be meaningfully together when we are physically apart and offer Fellows the infrastructure to use XR technologies to strengthen their equity work.
