Empathy in action: Immersive learning as a catalyst for inclusion
- Immersive learning creates engaging, realistic and empathetic learning experiences that help to boost workplace inclusion.
- Inclusion literacy is the understanding of concepts and reasons behind inclusion (knowing what and why). Inclusion is a feeling.
- To get the behavioural shifts that are the aim of embedding inclusion in an organisation’s culture, it is necessary to remove the blocks to awareness.
- If your aim is to go beyond literacy and achieve inclusion fluency, then you will need to consider additional and more immersive methods of learning.
- Immersive learning goes one step further to a deeper level of absorption or saturation through complete sensory engagement.
- The most valuable benefit of immersive learning is its capacity for empathy building. Immersive learning environments enable individuals to experience perspectives different from their own, fostering empathy and understanding.
- It is impossible to love your neighbour until you know him as yourself. The power of inclusion is a limitless, it is only limited by our inability to see our neighbours as ourselves if we can use immersive learning.
- Immersive learning offers a hands-on, interactive experience that can more effectively engage participants and convey the nuances of inclusion and diversity.
- One of the things we hear constantly from clients is that their environment is unique. Customising offerings through theatre and tech platforms allows for training modules to address inclusion challenges within an organization.
- Immersive learning represents a powerful tool in the advancement of inclusion literacy within organizations.
