360 Global Goals

Fishbowl-Panel Global Goals Pavillon

360 Global Goals is an immersive 360° projection and discussion format that brings the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to life for a broad audience.

The focus is on a walk-in 360° projection environment and virtual reality (VR) experiences in which visitors can explore projects related to the SDGs. The immersive projections and VR exhibits make global interconnections tangible and immediately experiential—they highlight both the potential ecological, social, and economic consequences of failure and the positive prospects that can arise from decisive and collaborative action.

Among other things, the exhibition will feature short films and VR experiences produced by students at Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences. The six projection surfaces are being created as a student construction project in the Department of Architecture. The exhibition is accompanied by participatory workshops—such as the fishbowl panel on August 26, 2026, at the Museum of Applied Art—in which visitors reflect together on their experiences, establish local connections, and develop concrete courses of action. The goal of the project is to transform awareness into participation and to highlight the SDGs not only as a global agenda but also as a shared local arena for action.
