Empathy Labs: Experiential Virtual Role-Playing
Virtual reality experiences that allow individuals to inhabit the perspectives of others, particularly those from marginalized or historically disadvantaged groups. Participants experience day-to-day life through these lenses (e.g., a refugee, a person with a disability, someone facing discrimination), fostering deeper understanding and empathy by addressing and breaking real-world societal biases and prejudices.
Future Scenarios that inspired this product idea
Anthropological studies of simulated realities and virtual societies reveal new insights into human behavior, identity formation, and social structures, challenging existing anthropological theories.
