Description: A Walk Alone is a virtual reality experience that simulates what it feels like to walk alone at night as a woman. The concept is inspired by the kidnapping and murder of Sarah Everard, a 33-year-old woman whose tragedy reignited an international conversation about women’s safety in March 2021.
