Living Together Sustainably – New Culture of Empathy – Short Video of Dominc Barter on Empathy

 

I’m sharing one of my favorite short videos of Restorative Circle co-founder Domanic Barter speaking on empathy with transcript,  here. It highlights how empathy is essential for living together sustainably. This resource is also part of my presentation on empathetic listening and Restorative Circles for the Cascadia Regional Call on August 29, 2025. We’ll explore how building a culture of empathy strengthens our capacity for conflict resolution and collective healing.
