An Empathy-Building Toolkit for Museums

Elif M. Gökçigdem, PhD is a pioneer in positioning museums as empathy-building incubators. She designs encounters that nurture meaning-making and unlock human potential to experience an ever-widening sense of relatedness and belonging. After coining the term empathy-building through museums in 2006, Elif created the Designing for Empathy(R) Framework, Summit, and Workshops, published three books and set up ONEempathynetwork.com.
