The Empathy Labyrinth® is spreading across the world!
In April 2007, Marc traveled to Israel and gave a full day Empathy Labyrinth workshop to 25 Israeli
educators. Jewish and Arabic teachers attended this historic event. Hebrew and Arabic translators
were on hand and assisted Marc to make the workshop accessible to all.
With the loving support and contribution of many hours behind the scenes from Ronny Weinberger,
and Miri Shapiro, the Empathy Labyrinth floor cards were translated into Hebrew.
Now with the much appreciated help from Woojdan Massalha, the Empathy Labyrinth is currently
being translated into Arabic.
If you are an NVC trainer and own an Empathy Labyrinth, please let us know where you are using
