As part of the University-wide “Year of Compassion” initiative, the Carlos and the Emory Center for Contemplative Science and Compassion Based Ethics, present an exhibition designed to help visitors explore compassion in a concrete and experiential way. What Moves You? invites visitors to explore what motivates us, moves us, and gives us purpose; how we find empathy and resonance in one another through our shared humanity and diversity; how and why we sometimes fail to be moved, fail to find common purpose, and neglect to protect or help others in need; and what we can do to address that.
