Drawing on belief in a just world theory, it investigates victim blaming, trivialisation, and psychological distancing. Using immersive staged films, the project aims to identify barriers to intervention and develop evidence-based campaigns encouraging bystanders to act more decisively.

By improving affordability, convenience, and incentives, sustainable choices can become the default rather than the exception.
