Make empathy part of every tech job
Technologists make billions of daily decisions that shape society.
Empathy in Tech equips them to do it with care, responsibility, and ethics.
Technology shapes the world — and it’s shaped by everyday decisions.
Technologists decide what gets built, who it serves, and how it behaves. Every tiny decision and every line of code has the potential to shape society.
But most people in tech have never been taught how to think through those decisions with empathy.
It’s not a character flaw. It’s a training gap.
We believe empathy should be part of every developer’s toolkit — and we’re building the resources to make that happen.
Empathy Training for Technologists
Empathy in Tech is a nonprofit initiative that teaches empathy as a core technical skill — not a soft bonus, not a corporate value statement, but a practical part of building better systems.
Help Us Train the Tech Industry
Your donation gives technologists tools to consider to the world they’re creating — not just the code they’re shipping.
Conversations about Technical Empathy
Each episode of Empathy in Tech sparks dialogue about what it really takes to build ethical, people-first technology — from the codebase to the boardroom.

We Equip Technologists With Skills to Prioritize People
Technology touches nearly every part of modern life — from how we learn and work to how we access healthcare, connect with others, and participate in democracy.
When technologists are trained to think with empathy and responsibility, we see:
- Products that work better for more people — not just power users
- Stronger trust between teams, companies, and communities
- More thoughtful decisions in high-stakes environments
- A tech industry that earns the public’s trust
Faster innovation while building a future that works — for everyone.
