Project Syria

Project Syria is an immersive journalism piece about the effects of the Syrian civil war on children. It uses virtual reality alongside audio and video captured at a tragic event to place you at the scene as the story unfolds.

Nearly half of Syria’s 23 million people have been displaced by the civil war. Children make up more than half of the three million refugees living in camps or makeshift housing, and some news reports indicate that children are being specifically targeted in the violence.
