VR Negotiation Training for Doctors without Borders
9 de May de 2024
Negotiation VR is a training experience in Virtual Reality to expose Doctors Without Borders staff, mission heads, project coordinators, medical team leaders, etc. to realistic situations in a negotiation context. These situations allow you to train and improve the technical and emotional skills that occur during a negotiation process. The course is defined in two levels of difficulty, which allow this training to be adjusted to different types of knowledge.
Filming
The filming of this experience took place in the offices of Doctors Without Borders in Barcelona. It was a very demanding shoot due to both the script of the experience, which was very complicated in terms of scenes and script itself, but it was also complicated in terms of the actors’ costumes, which simulated high-ranking military personnel. We cannot show these images of soldiers on this blog due to the very restrictive policy of Doctors Without Borders in this regard.
Negotiation VR
To access this immersive experience, we do so through Warp VR, a learning platform that allows the use of 360º immersive learning scenarios like ours. Our immersive experiences allow the user to learn in real situations that simulate spaces like those they will encounter in their professional life. The real, non-digitized environment allows you to experience an experiential training that makes you be there, and live very diverse situations, which bring out feelings that are what make this type of experiences have a level of retention much higher than that obtained in another type of more theoretical training. Experiencing a situation and having to decide how to act is what places the user at the center of the action so that they are no longer a mere spectator, but rather take an active part, active learning, so the involvement on an emotional level is much larger.
We are very happy with the result of this experience, which has been very demanding both on a technical level (production, filming, set assembly, etc.) and on a human level (actors, costumes, etc.). This experience is being very well received by Doctors Without Borders staff because it confronts them with difficult situations that simulate conflict zones, and which are very useful for them since otherwise it would be very difficult to have training in this area.
