English This paper presents an on-going product design project that aims to improve reproductive health education in India through Japanese paper theatre (kamishibai). The educational kit resulting from the project alters the conventional form of kamishibai to adapt it to local conditions and make it easier to use, allowing untrained persons to teach this complex subject matter. We discuss the pilot episode from a series of plays teaching reproductive health specifically adapted to an Indian context. Since kamishibai is not well known in India, the project also comprises an adaptation of its physical form to reduce both manufacturing costs and difficulty of use.
