[In Polish] Your feelings and needs are important

Get to know the world of empathy!

Every year October 2 is a special day – the whole world celebrates the International Day of Empathic Action.

October 2 is also an International Day for Nonviolence – a day established by the UN General Assembly on June 15, 2006, adopted in resolution A/RES/61/271, inspired by the actions of the propagator of pacifism, Mahatma Gandhi, not accidentally celebrated on the anniversary of his birthday (born October 2, 1869).*

Four days later, on October 6, Marshall Rosenberg was born; he was American clinical psychologist, mediator, teacher and author of books, creator of Nonviolent Communication, NVC – an effective tool for resolving disputes and conflicts, improving relationships, health and quality of life.

From 22/09/2018 till 7/10/2018, in Poland and in Europe, takes place “Time for Empathy Project”. Its main aim is to propagate communication without violence.
