Empathy and 21st Century Enlightenment

With fall comes the beginning of a new school year and the boundless energy that is the result of an infusion of young minds ready to take off! So to get us started on our own adventure I thought we could look at the idea of empathy and it's role in our ability to be engaged citizens. Here is a short animated film to Mathew Taylor's speech on 21st Century Enlightenment. How does this relate to our work? Does it influence our personal lives? Comment with your thoughts and any further resources you think we may be interested in.
