EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN

Habitat loss endangers 85% of species, highlighting the need to educate the next generation about our impact on the environment. The Buddy System uses Augmented Reality (AR) to provide immersive experiences, connecting tech-savvy Gen Alpha with new ways to learn about endangered ecosystems and how to take care of them. 

Activation: The Buddy Experience

In collaboration with 3D artist, Vernon James Manlapaz @vernbestintheworld, WWF brings classroom lessons to  life through outdoor field trips where children can engage with and learn through hyper-realistic augmented reality interactions with animals "in the wild."
