At the World’s First Empathy Museum, Visitors Walk a Mile in Another Person’s Shoes—Literally

Founders of the first ever empathy museum are calling for a revolution of human relationships. Here’s how you can help.

You’ve probably heard the the saying, “Never judge a man until you have walked a mile in his shoes.


These wise words are the inspiration for the world’s first Empathy Museum, which I’m about to launch in London as part of the Totally Thames festival. Forget all those dusty museums with exhibits behind glass cases: this is different. The Empathy Museum invites you to experience and understand what it’s actually like to be another person, so you can look at the world through their eyes.
