Girls designing space in the metaverse
Women in Immersive Technology and InnoVationGirls (iVG.World) is organizing My Metaverse Workshop, an eight week-long series of virtual workshops centered around designing and creating space in the metaverse.
“The aim is to create equal representation and engage the youth in the development of the metaverse. The participants will pitch their ideas to a panel of judges and a winning team will be chosen”, the organizer says.
The workshop is headed by Richard Zreik, Co-Founder of iVG.World, along with metaverse experts.
“We invite nominations for young women / non-binary 13 – 17 years old to participate in this extraordinary cohort to imagine and design their own immersive space in the metaverse.”
IVG says the workshops enable sixteen young women / non-binary 13 – 17 years old, to create their unique, virtual space, interact through their avatar and meet women leaders in immersive tech through education and mentorship. The workshops come with a financial reward of 400€ incl. tax and an Oculus 2 VR Headset for participation in the Workshops, in order to honor the participants’ creative minds and inspire interest in the immersive technology fields.
The workshops will be held April 18 to June 10, 2002. Participants must reside in Europe.
