3-2-1 TUESDAYS WITH MS NIV

Posted on 1 Mar 2022 by nivedita mukerjee

Issue #86, 1st March, 2022

There is a crisis of empathy in our world of war today. In the world facing climate change. In the world which is barely getting out of two very difficult years of pandemic. Time to teach care and compassion to our next generation so that they create a better world for themselves and all those around them. We want to land in a better place than where our story began. As parents and educators, one of the foremost thing in our mind is to put in our best efforts so that the story of our students and children go beyond us. We are wired to really care about people. Educators and parent even more so. The more we are in the journey together as parents and educators, for our students and children, the more empathy we have for each other and them, they would grow with more empathy, more compassion and more care for the world around them and themselves.
