Human Dignity and Humiliation Studies

Breaking the Cycle of Humiliation

Linked with Yvonne Ryakiye – Burundi.

We are a global transdisciplinary network and fellowship of concerned academics and practitioners who are dedicated to ending humiliating practices and breaking cycles of humiliation throughout the world. We believe that through this, space is opened for mutual respect and esteem to take root and grow. We suggest that a mindset of cooperation and shared humility is necessary – not a mindset of humiliation – if we wish to build a better world, a world of equal dignity for all.
