Welcome home.

Born from the seeds of Empathy For Youth, Rumah Empati is our natural step forward.

Here, education meets ethics, and empathy is nurtured across all stages of life.

For all ages beyond youth.

Rumah Empati is a space for individuals, parents, educators, and changemakers to explore what it means to live, relate, and lead with compassion.

Why Rumah Empati?

Rumah Empati is our home. It is new, yet deeply familiar.

Home is where we meet our true selves.

It grounds us as siblings, as brother, as sister, as mother, as father, as uncle, as auntie, as children to our own aging parents.

A successor to our lineages of this land and that land. The Pattani and the Javanese, the Malay and the untraceable. Our ancestors live in our heart and our blood. Our food and our belly.

We learn by making mistakes. We learn by tending to ourselves and our families, our children’s schools, and our workplaces. Our friends and our communities. Our inner connections, spiritual and personal. Our outer associates, worldly and sublime.

We learn more. We get certified. We share. We train. We educate. We consult. We host.

Take off your shoes. You’re home too.

what is rumah empati?

Rumah Empati is a Social-Emotional and Ethical Education platform with focus and inspirations from:

Bahasa Hati framework based on Nonviolent Communication (NVC) by Marshall Rosenberg of Centre for Nonviolent Communication.
Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) framework by Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL)
Social Emotional and Ethics Education (SEE Learning), rooted in Contemplative Science and Compassion-Based Ethics by Emory University
Compassion Cultivation Training (CCT), which draws on insights and techniques from psychology, neuroscience, and contemplative practice. Based on the work by Compassion Institute and Stanford University.

From the Founders

We started Rumah Empati not as experts, but as life-long learners and practitioners — curious about how empathy can truly shape lives, systems, and futures.

We believe empathy isn’t a soft skill. It’s a life skill. And we’re so glad you’re here with us.
