Home After War

Home After War is an interactive VR experience that takes you to Fallujah, a city that was under Islamic State control until recently. The war has ended, but the city is still unsafe. Booby trapped homes and IEDs in the neighbourhoods are looming fears for returning refugees. Ahmaied Hamad Khalaf and his family returned home after the fighting subsided to find that their home was no longer the same. In Home After War, Ahmaied shares his story and invites you into his home to experience for yourself what it's like to fear the home you once loved. This project is part of the Oculus VR for Good Creators Lab program in partnership with Geneva Centre for Humanitarian Demining (GICHD).
