The metaverse is having impact today.
People and businesses are using metaverse technologies to create new opportunities that benefit society. From immersive education and training to new possibilities in healthcare and the workplace, we are excited about the positive benefits the metaverse is delivering.
Possibilities with the metaverse
Many companies are part of bringing the metaverse to life, leveraging virtual and augmented reality to improve industries and people’s lives. Dive into stories about how this is happening today.
Building responsibly
To bring the possibilities of the metaverse to life, we need to create safe and secure experiences. As we build, these four priority areas are front and center:
Economic opportunity
Giving people choice, and maintaining a thriving digital economy.
Privacy
Building meaningful transparency and control into our products.
Safety + integrity
Keeping people safe on our platforms, and giving them tools to take action or get help if they see or experience something they aren’t comfortable with.
Equity + inclusion
Ensuring these technologies are designed inclusively and in a way that’s accessible.
How the metaverse can transform education
“Instead of telling students what the dinosaurs were like, they can walk among them. Entire science laboratories can be built and filled with equipment that most schools would never be able to afford. Medical students can practice complex surgery without risk to patients or themselves.
This isn’t science fiction or wishful thinking — it is happening right now.”
