"The idea of being at the center of this march at the Eternal City surrounded by so much human history was a powerful thought. It was electric moment that inspired us to create a Virtual Reality (VR) experience so others could feel that same energy and get transported to this place," writes Jimmy Vainstein, World Bank GSD Printing & Multimedia on this blog post.
