Placing Human Dignity at the Heart of Storytelling

Placing Human Dignity at the Heart of Storytelling

Storytelling is a powerful tool that helps shape narratives and define cultures. It can help foster empathy and connection, serving as an important tool for promoting tolerance and inclusivity.  

Tolerance and inclusivity are core pillars of Dignified Storytelling and its 10 Principles.

Dignified Storytelling unites the voices of content makers, editors, journalists, photographers, filmmakers, storytellers, and contributors and equip them with the awareness and hands-on knowledge that will enable them to capture moments and tell stories without compromising human dignity.
