Description

Roots of Empathy: Changing the World Child by Child is an evidence-based program developed to foster empathy and emotional literacy in children. Mary Gordon, a longtime educator and social entrepreneur, created this acclaimed approach to create a more civil society, one child at a time. The Roots of Empathy program has already reached over 270,000 children in various countries, addressing concerns about the pressure on students from high-stakes tests and the need for social and emotional literacy. Gordon explains the value of empathy and provides guidance on how best to nurture it in all children, with the ultimate goal of reducing aggression, antisocial behavior, and bullying. By understanding the importance of empathy and learning how to cultivate it, parents and educators can play a significant role in shaping the next generation's social skills and values.
