The Global Human Dignity Project (GHDP) is linked to the Federal University of Pelotas (UFPel) Law School and the Pontifical Catholic University Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS) Law School, in Brazil.

This project brings together the views of jurists from different countries on the legal perspective of human dignity in its respective reality. It is intended to have a database to carry out consultations and provide comparative law studies on the principle of human dignity. GHDP in a non-profit project and also has no financial resources. All its maintenance and database are built on a free collaboration from institutes and people.

Our idea is to start inviting a Law Professor from different countries from all over the World to write a short paper in English (8-10 pages), on the understanding and application of the principle of human dignity in its own legal reality.
