Overview
About the course
We will explore the meaning of empathy and emotions and their role in policymaking. The Empathy and Emotion in Policymaking course at King's College London draws on a range of national and international case studies and will encourage you to reflect on your own personal and professional experiences.
Successively, we will connect these experiences to wider debates about what empathy means in the real-world and analysing what they look like when applied to policymaking, through practices, communications, mindsets, and cultures.
And, finally, we will examine the limitations and challenges that empathy presents in order to more fully equip students with a nuanced and considered appreciation of the concepts.
