The two-year intervention and research project seeks ways to grow the character traits of empathy and compassion in a diverse society like Nigeria
Eugene Ohu, a researcher and faculty at Lagos Business School , has won a grant of $234,000 from Templeton World Charity Foundation, Inc to conduct a two-year virtual reality research.
The TWCF-funded two-year intervention and research project seeks ways to grow the character traits of empathy and compassion in a diverse society like Nigeria, where there are multiple expressions of religious, cultural, social and economic identities.
“Although VR is fun, my research collaborators and I have broader and more ambitious goals which should see a greater deployment of VR in teaching, learning and development at all stages of a person’s life. I particularly want to see it deployed as a complementary learning resource in training at the Lagos Business School”, he added.
