Events Description
Every year for the past six years, Humainologie has led Empathy Week – a seven-day festival celebrating human connection and promoting empathy. Founded by Humainologie and proclaimed by the City of Calgary, the festival has amplified the voices of hundreds of artists, changemakers, and people who experience systemic barriers. We at unLikely Friends are so appreciative of the work that they have done, and we are thrilled that they have asked us to carry it forward.
