Organization information
We support the emerging global movement that brings compassion to life. We are a global network connecting people, cities, grassroots organizers and leaders to each other. We provide educational resources, organizing tools, and avenues for communication.
We promote empathy, peace, social justice, environmental sustainability, and intercultural understanding in a world riddled in turmoil. By encouraging compassionate action the Charter for Compassion aims to create compassionate communities where individuals can connect, collaborate, and support each other in their efforts to create a more compassionate world. These communities foster a sense of belonging and provide platforms for sharing ideas, resources, and initiatives related to compassion.
