iEmpathize Information

www.iEmpathize.org We evoke empathy and empower people to eradicate child exploitation. With a culture of collaboration, we move our mission forward through a host of creative partners, committed volunteers, and strategic outreach partnerships. Our projects have spanned the globe with most of our work focused in the US and Mexico. Empathy - To empathize is to understand and actively respond to the suffering of others. Empathy inspires movements that shift cultural perspectives and lead toward the end of child exploitation. Prevention - Preventing child exploitation in its many forms, including human trafficking, is our top priority. By addressing the fundamental elements that lead to exploitation, we can prevent it. Empowerment - Because we all intersect with child exploitation, whether directly or indirectly, each of us has a responsibility to act. We help people identify how and where they intersect with this issue and equip them with tools and opportunities to respond. Media - Multimedia is a tool through which we authenticate the issue of child exploitation. We use original media as a catalyst to inspire empathy, to educate, and to empower a wide range of people and strategic demographics. Survivors - Survivors guide the methodology of our content and participate in our programs. Because solutions to this issue must be survivor-centered, we look to them as our compass and inspiration.
