Simulation Exercise
This video (see the link below) introduces is a variation of a well known tool of role-play used to encourage discussion on an "uncomfortable" subject and to provoke the discussion on tolerance and understanding.
- to experience the variety of opinions in the society
- to "try" on somebody else's point of view
- to reflect on why collisions of opinions take place in the society
Each member of the group receives a description of his role. The roles vary between two extremes, depending on the subject, but both sides of the extremes, as well as neutral roles, should be present. The facilitator introduces the topic and the aim of the discussion. The task should be to reach an agreement, on whatever is the main subject of the exercise.
After the participants either reach a solution or a time limit, a de-brief and a discussion follows.
Following video illustrates possible flow and topic of the role-play:
