Mandala of Empathy

Storytelling for Digital Natives and for Dialogue Across Borders.

We're a youth-led, story-first space where everyday kindness becomes a connection. We invite real moments of empathy, dignity, and courage—then collect, curate, animate, and share them so they travel farther than negativity. Every 25 seconds a negative headline fills our feeds; your story can change the next 25 seconds.

Why "Mandala"

A mandala is a circle of connection. Our heart-mandala mark weaves six guiding practices:

Listen Deeply – begin with care and attention

Reflect Kindly – hold stories with humility

Understand Differences – make room for nuance

Express Creatively – tell it in your voice

Connect Across Borders – find common ground

Act with Care – choose the small actions that heal

What we publish

Humanizing, non-polarizing stories of empathy, friendship, courage, and everyday peace.

Formats: text (150–800 words), photo, audio, short video.

Languages welcome: Open to everyone, because our language is peace.
