Learning Experiences
These Learning Experiences work in a variety of settings with learners of all ages. Each experience ranges from fifteen minutes to two hours to allow for maximum flexibility and customization, and can be used as stand-alone activities or combined to form a Dignity Workshop. We recommend everyone start with the common experience: “What is Dignity.” The remaining experiences are organized into three categories: Understand, Explore and Share.
