Dignity – Zoom Talk with Liv Larsson

Welcome to Week 14 of the Needs’ Year!

This week Joachim Berggren will have a conversation with Liv Larsson about the need of Dignity.

Liv Larsson is a CNVC trainer since 2002 and the author of more than 20 books. Liv is also a mediator mainly working with conflicts between the indigenous group in Scandinavia, the Same and forest and mining industries. She holds a masters degree in Literature and Creative writing.

Embracing shame, empathy, vulnerability and power is at the core of all Livs work. She is a mother of a growing teenager, is passionate about cross-country skiing and loves to spend time in nature and lives in the forest of northern Sweden.

Liv writes: The need for dignity is often forgotten when we talk about other more obvious needs such as community, security and freedom. But an unmet need for dignity is often behind depression and violence. Few of us talk about the need for dignity and it often steers us from the hidden. We lie to protect our dignity, we work too hard for our own health to escape the humiliation of not being enough, we bully others to avoid showing ourselves.
