Training Course: "Digital Empathy" in Cyprus

Training Course: "Digital Empathy"
1-8 October 2022 | Pissouri, Cyprus

"Digital Empathy" consists of seminars and workshops designed to teach participants that digital transformation can only be achieved through humanitarian values. Due to digital enterprise being mostly customers centring, youth workers need to cultivate their empathic abilities in order to be able to assess the needs of their potential customers, students, or surroundings. In a sense, empathy might be the groundwork for digital transformation to follow. For this reason, we include the component of empathy in all of our activities, trying to reinforce young adults to be more innovative, empathetic, and critical when working with digital tools.

To achieve this, participants will engage in exercises and activities that focus on digital enterprise and empathy, all of which will help them associate how empathy is directly related to their digital development.

Additionally, participants will learn through exercises like the empathy map to put their shoes in the position of their potential customers. Digital enterprise and cultivated digital competences are skills. However, the way you teach young people how to develop and implement those skills should be entangled with humanitarian values.
