Explain why you believe this to be an issue where human dignity is a critical factor.

FOUR APPROACHES TO GROUNDING HUMAN DIGNITY

1A Dignity that humans always already have by being a member of the human species: Humans have inherent worth simply because they are human.

1B Dignity that humans always already have based on possession of one or more human capacities: Humans have inherent worth because they are distinctive and special.

2A Dignity that humans can acquire (or lose) through a sense of self-worth: I have dignity when I believe in my own worth.

2B Dignity that humans can acquire (or lose) through moral (or immoral) behaviour: Humans acquire dignity when they behave well in society, but can also lose it when they behave badly.

To be human is to be multidimensional
When you tried to identify some of the qualities or attributes that make us human, you might have come up with some general categories such as the following:

Humans have many dimensions including the physical, emotional, psychological, social, interpersonal, spiritual, sexual, historical, rational, symbolic, creative and moral. All should be considered when thinking of humans as multidimensional. Humans cannot easily be reduced to any single quality or attribute. Being human is a multidimensional reality. Further, different individuals will develop each of these attributes to different degrees (and some, perhaps not at all). To think about being human, we need to take account of this multidimensionality.
