| Abstract | Design challenges refer to a difficulty of corresponding human and contextual complexity (i.e. needs, roles, and resources) in design practices. Such an issue calls for combining deep investigations with relevant design experiences. We propose a workshop for disentangling and discussing design practices by adopting the Theatre of the Oppressed techniques. These techniques allow enacting personal performances as well as the construction of a shared narrative about the participants roles, needs, and resources. By this workshop, we aim to improve the participants competence in understanding peoples needs and developing a design solution accordingly. Finally, possible outcomes are: a special issue of an international peer reviewed journal, and/or a live performance that the conference attendees can enjoy as an experiential design occasion. © 2016 ACM. |

| In the context of Participatory Design, empathy offers designers the opportunity to develop greater understanding of peoples needs and idiosyncrasies while enabling mutual understanding. . | On the other hand, the live performance prepared with the workshop participants could be offered to the conference community at large. . | It involves a transformative and critical consciousness in order to promote inclusion and social change. . | Physical and reflexive activities will lead to develop and improve the participants understanding of the social and human complexity in PD. . |
