The Dignity Initiative interviews philosophers, anthropologists, neuroscientists, epidemiologists collaborating across multiple universities, as well as experts in international development and gender at UNICEF to examine the institutional, social, material and psychological contexts that enable the enactment and experience of dignity. This interdisciplinary research project responds to the recent imperatives to better understand the notion of dignity and the social contexts in which an individual's dignity can be actualized or painfully ruptured.
