Dignispace is an innovative and evidence informed digital resource underpinned by the PANEL principles - Participation, Accountability, Non Discrimination, Empowerment and Legality] principles of the Scottish Human Rights Framework [Scottish Human Rights Commission, 2017]. Dignispace was co-produced with students through interdisciplinary research.
