Thanks to a wonderful team of HumanDHS collaborators, we are diligently reformatting our annual workshop for "DigniZooming." This opens up many exciting possibilities, including welcoming many returning and many new friends from around the world!
Our theme this year is "From a Virus Pandemic to a Pandemic of Dignity: How Can We Escape Complicity with Institutionalized Humiliation?" Our dialogues will focus on examining timely topics, including social justice and policing, dignity education, dignity and spiritual diversity, and ongoing collaborations. Please see our meeting agenda as it evolves on our workshop webpage.
Rather than two long days, we are hosting this year's workshop on the Zoom platform over three short days, Thursday – Saturday, December 10 – 12th, from 11:00 AM – 3:30 PM (New York time). We hope this will make it convenient for local and global friends to join us.

Many Ways to Participate
-
Supporters: We welcome everyone to be a participant throughout the workshop by sharing your presence and active listening. This is the most important way to participate. Your presence is a present to all of us!
-
Careholders: We welcome all who would like to be part of our Careholder Team to help with logistics, including welcoming participants, overseeing our electronic bulletin boards, photography, gathering participant information, overseeing chat messages, and more. We warmly welcome returning and new friends to help with these vital leadership roles that make this workshop possible.
-
Pre-Planned Dignilogue Host, Co-Host, and Contributors: Again this year, we are inviting Pre-Planned Dignilogues (Dignity + Dialogue) that will act as portals to thoughtful conversations about urgent topics of interest. Dignilogue Hosts will organize their Dignilogue Session in advance, meeting with their contributors prior to the workshop. Since we never have enough time to say all that needs to be said, we invite all groups to continue their conversations after the workshop and, in this way, create ongoing dignilogue conversations.
-
Be a Dignigardener for a Connection-Reflection Group: We plan to invite all participants into small groups throughout the workshop to help deepen the dialogue in response to the Dignilogue topics. We especially invite returning friends to consider being a host in support of these informal groups. If you are a returning friend and would like to host such a group as a Dignigardener, please let us know! We will be delighted!

Afternoon Co-Creativity/Deepening the Dialogue Bonus Sessions: If you have your own Zoom account and would like to organize and lead an afternoon "Co-Creativity/Deepening the Dialogue Group" on a topic of your interest, we warmly welcome your proposal.
