The Empathy Library is a university-based initiative hosted by School of Design, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Our mission is to incorporate empathy into the design process through innovative tools, research, and educational resources. By simulating disabilities and impairments, we aim to foster understanding and inclusivity in design practices. 

This website is currently
under construction, but we invite you to explore it soon for open-source tools, educational content, and insights into empathetic design.

In the meantime, we warmly invite you to attend the opening of the Empathy Library:
