Empathy Week Campaign

Empathy Week Campaign

Overview

Empathy is a skill that underpins other life skills - leadership, creativity, communication, resilience and tolerance. Kicking off in February each year with Empathy Week, this 5-week programme (fully supported with educational resources) uses the power of film and video to develop the skill of empathy. Participants produce a film of their own that allows students to put empathy into action about something they care about. If they wish, they can submit their film to the annual Empathy Week Global Awards. Empathy Week has engaged 140,000 students across 40+ countries and is free for all government and state schools worldwide.

This guide's main aim is to help you understand the importance of teamwork when young people are working together on a group project. It gives you an overview of the different departments in organisations and the various roles young people can play in these departments. It explores the different stages of teamwork, such as forming, storming, morning, performing, and adjourning, and applies these to the five steps of Youth Social Action.
