Webinar: Fostering Empathy for Animals

One of the central constructs of conservation psychology is empathy, our ability to perceive, understand, and care about the experiences of another. In this webinar, we will discuss the concept of empathy and how it can be applied to wildlife conservation, particularly through the work of informal education.
