Unilever’s Degree Hosts a Metaverse Marathon to Advocate for Disability Inclusion

While the metaverse is still in the early stages of development, there is a growing awareness of the need to build a more diverse and inclusive virtual world. In a global study last year from the Institute of Digital Fashion, 60% of people felt there was a lack of inclusivity in digital spheres, which can lead to the marginalization of certain communities online. Most of the survey respondents called for greater representation in the metaverse of women, LGBTQ+ people and those with disabilities.
