The discussion will be guided by the following questions prepared by the Chairs: 

• Q1: When participation unfolds in constrained or marginalized contexts, how do we redefine  what counts as participation, and how do materials, bodies, spaces, and conflicts  become part of enabling inclusion?​
• Q2: When designing for coexistence, how can participation create conditions for visibility,  belonging, and acting together without erasing conflict, difference, or unequal power?
