Dignity Principles

    • Every human being has a right to lead a dignified life.
    • A dignified life means an opportunity to fulfill one's potential, which is based on having a human level of health care, education, income and security.
    • Dignity means having the freedom to make decisions on one's life and to be met with respect for this right.
    • Dignity should be the basic guiding principle for all actions.
    • Ultimately, our own dignity is interdependent with the dignity of others.
