Agog: The Immersive Media Institute is “a philanthropic organization focused on how immersive storytelling — such as augmented reality, mixed reality, smart glasses, and spatial sound — can help people engage with climate and other urgent issues in more embodied, experiential ways.
“We’ve just launched our first open call: Climate Futures + Immersive Media, a $1 million funding initiative to support projects that help people connect more deeply to climate challenges and imagine new pathways for action. We’ll be awarding grants from $25,000 to $200,000 across a range of stages, from early-concept to more developed projects; funding is available to storytellers, activists, artists, organizers, technologists, and other creative teams with ideas on how to move people from understanding to climate action through immersive media.”
