Why do we need Empathy?

 

Following the funding motto of European identity ‘equal in diversity´, the project EMPATHY supports the prevention of instances and attitudes of racism, xenophobia and intolerance through actions devoted to orientation, integration and inclusion based on non-formal education methods, leading to empathic attitudes of EU citizens towards diversity in general.
