Given the potential impact of these challenging situations on the wellbeing of researchers in the field, there is much need for a discourse on affective impact of research on the researcher. In this workshop, we invite discussion and reflection on the experiences of distress and the role of informal coping mechanisms (e.g., personal narratives) to address them. We will create a forum where researchers and practitioners can discuss and share experiences of projects in sensitive settings and work towards guidelines to inform future projects.enagingparticipatory designmethodologyreflectionethicsemotionqualitative researchmarginalizationvaliditysensitive settingsusercentered designdisabilityText/Conference Paper10.1145/2957276.2996292
