The workshop “Virtual Reality Innovation for Science Education to Reduce Educational Inequality” was organized by the Office of Innovation for Democracy at King Prajadhipok’s Institute in partnership with the CATRE Laboratory on June 26–27, 2025, at the Phuwanat Prajadhipok Room. The workshop’s objective was to promote equitable access to science education by enhancing the capacity of educational personnel and teachers.

The access of students to essential knowledge, particularly in science, is still being impeded by educational inequality in remote areas, low-income communities, and vulnerable groups. This knowledge is essential for the development of skills, the promotion of innovation, and the establishment of a foundation for 21st-century capacities. Consequently, the promotion of genuine scientific comprehension necessitates the use of effective learning platforms and the implementation of suitable instruments.

It is anticipated that this initiative will enhance the efficacy of online teaching and learning, promote lifelong learning among the general public, and increase access to high-quality science education.
