What is the Global Dignity Day??
On this day, Young Global Leaders and other role models join thousands
of volunteers to do Dignity Days. They speak to youth in the Middle
East, Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas. Their aim is to instill a
new, positive, inclusive and interconnected sense of value in young
people that will guide them as they grow.
The mission of Global Dignity is to implement the universal right of
every human being to lead a dignified life. We all have the ability to
increase the dignity of others and thus we increase our own dignity.
The dignity approach works on all levels: it works for children and for
adults, it works for men and for women, and it works on the micro and
macro level.
Global Dignity is an autonomous non-profit, non-criticism and
non-partisan initiative. We wish to be inspiration-based: commending and
encouraging best practice and dignity-centered leadership.
"Every Life deserves a certain amount of dignity no matter how poor or damaged the shell that carries it"
Rick Bragg
Global dignity means giving respect to all. No matter how poor or rich is the person, he/she deserves an amount of respect. Dignity should be given to every human no matter if he/she is a maid, is a king, is an old person or is a kid.
