Altruistic competence is an essential attribute in the development of a socially responsible and empathetic individual. It encompasses a range of skills and attitudes that encourage selflessness, compassion, and social responsibility. The formation of altruistic competence is a key aspect of the educational process in general educational institutions, where students can be guided to develop moral and ethical values through structured teaching methodologies. This article explores various approaches to fostering altruistic competence among students, including ethical education, social projects, collaborative learning, and parental involvement. The study aims to highlight the significance of integrating altruistic values into the educational system to cultivate socially responsible citizens.[3]
