Empathy Connects is a for-impact initiative built with an objective of connecting and engaging motivated individuals with existing social development movements across India. We envision a society more equal, just and deeply connected with empathy. 

Empathy Connects is founded by IIT and TISS Alumni. It is an initiative of Tathaastu Social Initiatives and mentored by social leaders, entrepreneurs and professors from TISS and IIMs. We identify and partner with organizations and social enterprises with sustainable impact at grassroots. Our mission is to create informed citizens with an experience of grassroots realities. Motivated individuals are connected with these movements through travel, internship, and cultural immersion programs. To achieve the goal we focus on making these travel programs and ground learning workshops an integral part of the curriculum of education institutes.
