There is plenty of philosophical research on the concept of #dignity. To root our approach to dignity in peoples’ lived experiences, we must start with the human stories. Read these incredible accounts in the 2022 Dignity Report. https://t.co/02kP3Gi3cZ

Look out for the Dignity Report 2022, out tomorrow.

Our annual roundup of all of the work @IDinsight has been doing building the dignity agenda.

We couldn't be more excited for @tom_wein and the @DignityxProject initiative!

As one of our #BluePapers outlines, "we cannot pursue goodness through research if at first contact we harm, unintentionally or not."

Looking forward to seeing the impact of this initiative!

We've joined forces with @IDinsight to help partners across global development put dignity to the top of the agenda. It couldn't be more urgent, and I hope you'll join us.

1/ Excited to (w/ @tom_wein & Torben) get this first version of our dignity working paper out into the world.

We report on the results of three survey experiments but also aim to do some useful definitional, diagramming, and agenda-setting work for more respectful dev.

[The Dignity Project @DignityxProject]

"First steps toward building respectful development requires overcoming misalignments: three experiments on dignity in aid in Kenya and the United States"

@tom_wein, @hlanthorn & Torben Fischer’s new working paper.

[The Dignity Project @DignityxProject]

How should you measure Respect for Dignity?

Today we publish our new five-item survey measure, validated across 3 countries and 3 contexts. We hope you'll use it.

Full working paper coming soon. So grateful to Priyanka Khatry for her work here.

Next week, @tom_wein joins @IDinsight in Nairobi to continue and expand this work on dignity. We’ll put The Dignity Project as a separate entity into suspension. In 2022 you'll see a revitalised Dignity Collective, new research collaborations with IDinsight’s partners, and more.
