Exhibit on refugee crisis on display in Pittsburgh
The international medical humanitarian organization Doctors Without Borders brings its free, educational exhibit on the global refugee crisis to Pittsburgh this week. “Forced From Home” will be on display Oct. 27-31 in Schenley Plaza, highlighting the migration of millions, illustrating the conditions in which refugees live and offering firsthand accounts from aid workers.
Upon arrival, visitors walk through a 30-foot-diameter dome to watch an enveloping, 360-degree video that brings them up close with individuals, families and aid workers in refugee camp and displacement settings. Visitors also have the opportunity to watch one of three original documentaries in VR that take a closer look at patients escaping crises in Burundi, Honduras and Syria.
