Bridging Beyond is dedicated to one very important thing: bridging the divisions between people.
Human beings are diverse. We differ from one another in many ways: our identities, life experiences, perspectives, socioeconomic statuses and more. Differences can be a strength and a source of discovery and learning. All too often though, they lead to distrust, division, and hostility. They block our access to the satisfaction, companionship, learning and joy that can come from living in diverse communities. They prevent us from experiencing the power that comes of working together in common purpose.
The key to overcoming the challenge of division is not simply for people to see each other, meet, or read about each other. It requires people to come to understand one another - to connect with each other’s needs, dreams, struggles, and emotions sufficiently to care for one another. We call this ‘bridging.’ Bridging means coming to see other people as truly human.
BridgingBeyond applies scientific understandings of empathy through events, workshops, practices, and groups to help people bridge the gulf of difference between them.
