The International Center for a Culture of Compassion (ICCC)

The International Center for a Culture of Compassion (ICCC) is lo­cat­ed in Woodbourne, NY. It is a priv­i­leged place to ex­plore and share Heart’s Home’s charism and to dis­cuss on how to pour out Compassion in­to ev­ery sec­tor of hu­man life.

A Source of Inspiration to live Compassion

The ICCC was found­ed in a de­light­ful and beau­ti­ful en­vi­ron­ment to fa­vor the in­spi­ra­tion of those who thirst for an an­swer when faced with suf­fer­ing.

A meeting point to share complementary interests

The ICCC’s am­bi­tion is to build up a cul­ture of Compassion by de­vel­op­ing a fruit­ful net­work among peo­ple from dif­fer­ent back­grounds who may be par­tic­u­lar­ly in­volved in the var­i­ous fields of cul­ture.

People come and gath­er for or­ga­nized events as well as on more in­for­mal oc­ca­sions, such as a fam­i­ly day or vis­its with friends.

A center to deepen the reflexion on Compassion

Since its cre­ation in 2007, the ICCC pro­pos­es art sem­i­nars, con­fer­ences and re­treats pro­vid­ing an in­tro­duc­tion to the cul­ture of Compassion. There are train­ing and for­ma­tion ses­sions as well for the peo­ple di­rect­ly in­volved in Heart’s Home Mission.

The Center is meant to be­come an aca­demic re­search cen­ter in the dis­ci­plines of phi­los­o­phy, the­ol­o­gy, science, and eco­nomics. The in­ves­ti­ga­tions of the schol­ars host­ed in the cen­ter will seek to clar­i­fy the im­pact of Compassion on their speci­fic field of re­search.
