About The Intersection

The Intersection Urban Learning is a leading provider of empathy education in Australia. Every year, we facilitate sessions for over 10,000 participants from schools, workplaces and community groups, delivering an average of 500 sessions. We incorporate 21st-century skills into our educational experiences such as Meet the Neighbour Intersection experiences, interactive workshops and story-based city walks.

The Intersection (formerly Urban Seed Education) is an activity of Gospel Hall Inc. Since 1998 Gospel Hall Inc has operated as a non-profit, incorporated charity focused on housing and education for the young, disadvantaged and/or unemployed in Melbourne.

Gospel Hall Inc is a registered charity and has deductible gift recipient status. Donations of $2 or more may be tax deductible for Australian tax payers. Please contact us if you wish to donate towards our work.
