Eco-empathic design is a new approach to architecture and urban planning that seeks to create built environments that are both sustainable and human-centered. This approach is based on the understanding that the built environment can have a profound impact on our brains and behavior. The research explores the potential of eco-empathic design to improve our health, well-being, and productivity. The paper argues that by incorporating natural elements into the built environment, such as plants, natural light, and views of nature, we can create environments that are more calming, relaxing, and productive. The paper also explores the challenges and opportunities of implementing eco-empathic design in different cultural and environmental contexts. The study discussed examples of eco-empathic design from different areas of the world. These examples demonstrate the potential of eco-empathic design to create built environments that are both sustainable and beneficial to human health and well-being. The paper concludes by calling for more research and adoption of eco-empathic design principles in order to create healthier, happier, and more productive societies.

This research explores the application of an Empathy Design Thinking (EDT) curriculum within primary education, guided by the principles of Experience, Empathy, Exploration, and Evaluation, to examine its effect on fostering student creativity in a Chinese context. The curriculum was redesigned into a streamlined, modular format for ease of integration into existing educational frameworks. Findings demonstrate a positive impact on students' creative thinking abilities, particularly in enhancing fluency and flexibility, with notable mentions of empathy's vital role in the educational process. This study aligns with global educational trends emphasizing the need for empathetic and comprehensive learning experiences, offering insights into the potential of EDT to enrich creative education for primary students, educators, curriculum developers, and policymakers.
