Learning To Deeply Care In Healthcare: Empathy Education In Medicine
Empathy education in medicine through humanizing global stories that help us understand our patients and meaningfully connect
There are so many challenges and so much pain that patients experience. Yet we aren’t learning to express empathy in medicine as powerfully as we could be. We all need to understand our patients deeply, as whole humans with feelings. That’s where Global Learning Journeys come in: captivating stories and big life questions to explore self, others, and our world and to build empathy.
Meet your lifelong empathy guide: you.

Global Learning Journeys make learning a joyful lifelong experience. Wordless videos that encourage curiosity and empathy for self, others, and our world.

Healthcare education to learn empathy in medicine and patient care.
Too many of us (humans) grow up without support to practice understanding diverse people, cultures, mindsets, perspectives, and ways of life.
Lots of brainstorming. Not enough “heartstorming”.
When we don’t use our empathy and critical thinking muscles, our ability to see one another as unique amazing humans starts to wither away.
That leads to knots in our chests, bullying, inequity, injustice, prejudice, intolerance, family fights, and violence. Bias. Judgment. Separation. Hate. It can also lead to ineffective care in medicine and healthcare.
That’s why Better World Ed exists for all of us:
To move from our heads to our hearts.
To learn to love self, others, and our environment.
To learn to live the spirit of ubuntu: “I am because WE are”
Let’s engage students with global stories and conversations that open our hearts and minds early in life, every day, and everywhere.
In school, during homeschooling, and in our community learning environments.
You(th) can and will help all of us come back together. Across every line of difference and every border.
With social, emotional, and academic brilliance.
Let’s untangle the knots within and between us. Let’s reweave the fabric of our communities.
Let’s Be WE.
