Abstract (short): The coronavirus pandemic represents an important turning point in the way human activities unfold on our planet. The virus makes it more palpable than ever before that the world has become a village, that we are all interconnected and interdependent. Never before has it been so clear that we must act together, and fast.

Baumdebatte im Wald Holtenser Landstraße: Kein „blanker Boden“ am Waldrand HAMELN. Das Thema mobilisiert: Dutzende Hamelner waren zum Außentermin der Hamelner Politik im Wald an der Holtenser Landstraße gekommen.
Evelins Reflexionen: Wenn nur das Holz gesunder Bäume profitabel ist, und das Beseitigen kranker Bäumer ein Verlustgeschäft, sind dann Argumente der Verkehrssicherheit und Artenvielfalt "Notausgänge", doch noch gesunde Bäume fällen zu können? Was muss geändert werden, wenn sich die Zerstörung der Umwelt kurzfristig "lohnt", deren Bewahrung aber nicht? Reicht es, Bewahrung in ein Produkt umzuwandeln und zu vermarkten, z.B. für Ökotourismus? Hat Alexander Neubacher Recht oder hat er Unrecht mit seinem Argument, dass wer das Klima schützen will, nicht gegen "Kapitalismus" demonstrieren sollte, sondern dafür? Wenn er Unrecht hat, was sind alternative Lösungsansätze?

Thank you so much, dear Rosa Reinikainen, for your wonderful work!
HUMAN DIGNITY AND HUMILIATION - QUARTERLY DIALOGUE, Interdisciplinary Seminar, May 2nd (top screenshot), and September 26th (bottom screenshot), 10am-12pm (California time), convened by Rosa Reinikainen, Adjunct faculty member of the Western Institute for Social Research, where she graduated from the dignity course with Linda Hartling.
Rosa Reinikainen kindly explained on 1st May 2020:
We are so fortunate at WISR to be linked in with the global network of Human Dignity and Humiliation Studies. Evelin Lindner and Linda Hartling have dedicated their lives to the important study of these dynamics. Understanding the dynamics of humiliation is critical to healing from these cycles and restoring our innate dignity. We live in a highly interconnected world. Humiliation cycles happen in a social, political, environmental, relational and interpersonal level, as well as an internal level. It is important to look at our participation in these systems. There is escalating social instability, political unrest, violent conflict, economic injustice, and climate change and now a pandemic, which is already increasing and exacerbating existing inequality. There are massive issues with Police murdering and targeting black and brown people. We are having increasing climate disruption leading to floods, wildfires earthquakes, and hurricanes In looking at these dynamics we can create the impetus to design innovative, sustainable, and mutually dignifying solutions to these problems. We will discuss how we can create systems that ensure equal dignity for all. This seminar is a discussion about Human Dignity and Humiliation. It is a ‘come-as-you-are’ discussion, meaning you do not need to have a deep understanding of these ideas. We have all had experiences that are relevant to the discussion. These dialogues can help create change. Come discuss human dignity and humiliation with me.

Humiliation to Dignity: Future of Global Solidarity (original streaming | downloaded video | Pdf)
E-Conclave invited by one of the leading schools of India, the Sri Sathya Sai Vidya Vihar in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India, live on YouTube, Sunday, 12th July 2020, 12.00 Indian Standard Time (8.30 Central European Time, 02:30 US/Eastern Time, 23.30 Saturday, 11th July US/Pacific Time).

The inspirer of this event was the founder of the Renaissance University in Indore, Swapnil Kothari, the host of the 29th Annual Conference of Human Dignity and Humiliation Studies, 16th - 19th August 2017 'Dignity in Times of Globalisation' (see the picture at the bottom!)
This is the message with which I ended this conversation:
As the world watches the heart-breaking coronavirus pandemic unfold, my hope is for an exponential change of heart so that global unity rooted in respect for local diversity becomes possible. The central question we face, which we must ask and answer together, remains:
How must we, humankind, arrange our affairs on this planet so that dignified life will be possible in the long term?
My message to the young students: Please honour the many dignifying traditions that grew within and out of India and let the world learn from YOU!
The African ubuntu philosophy says, umunthu ngamunthu ngabantu, or ‘a person is a person through other people.’
In India, Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam means The World is One Family, in Sanskrit वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम्, consisting of vasudhā, the earth, ēva, indeed, and kutumbakam, family.

In the 'quiz' at the end I mentioned Bertha von Suttner and Adi Shankaracharya and the 'Forest Acadamy' in the Himalayas. See also my list of past mentors.

Thank you so much, dear Ella Nygård, for creating such wonderful visualisations!
At the top, you see our New Beginning!
Evelin Lindner has coined the term dignism (dignity + ism) to describe a world where every new-born finds space and is nurtured to unfold their highest and best, embedded in a social context of loving appreciation and connection, where the carrying capacity of the planet guides the ways in which everybody’s basic needs are met. It is a world, where we unite in respecting human dignity and celebrating diversity, where we prevent unity from degrading into oppressive uniformity and keep diversity from sliding into hostile division.
Linda Hartling often concludes her emails with this sentence: Moving away from humiliation means moving toward mutuality in relationships.
