Your Personal Invitation — Welcome!

Warmest greetings!


You're warmly invited to our annual Workshop on Transforming Humiliation and Violent Conflict:


"The Courage to Protect and Nurture Dignity in Times of Humiliation"


This event is dedicated to fostering global dialogue to end cycles of humiliation while strengthening the dignity of all people and protecting our planet. 


Through interactive sessions, we will explore strategies to transform cycles of humiliation into opportunities for building courage and resilience, contributing to a culture of dignity in both personal and global contexts. We invite you to visit our workshop website for the latest details as they unfold.

Our annual workshop emphasizes collaborative learning and community building. We strongly encourage participants to join us for the entire time. By nurturing a “global family of dignity,” the workshop aims to inspire participants to become lifelong advocates for peace through dignity.


Organized by the HumanDHS network, partnering with the Morton Deutsch International Center for Cooperation and Conflict Resolution (MD-ICCCR), this workshop brings together scholars, practitioners, and advocates from diverse fields to address the root causes of humiliation and its role in perpetuating violence. 

Registration Is Free
