Complete your Changemaker in Residency Week Reflection: 71
The empathy workshop session was my favorite one as we were taught how to empathize with a different set of people. I got to know the foundations of empathy and who we must empathize with. That session inspired me to comprehend situations by putting ourselves in others’ shoes. We did an activity during the session in which we were divided into pairs of two and given some time to share our stories and the other person had to listen and fill out the empathy form. It inspired me a lot as I understood that to understand someone’s problem, we must broaden our mindset. It inspired me to work on myself in order to deeply understand the problems going on in our world, I shouldn’t be thinking from my perspective only. As we brainstormed the stakeholders and role played as stakeholders, we understood the root causes and got more dedicated to work on it as we could relate ourselves to the conditions and problems which were emerging.
