1. Human Dignity

Human Dignity is the concept that all human beings are born deserving a natural level of respect and should be treated in that way. I have no doubt in my mind that Kaleidoscope Arts Camp demonstrates total respect for each camper as an individual, and allows each camper to fully express themselves in their art without harsh restrictions being put on them by the counsellors/teachers.

An example of how Kaleidoscope respects Human Dignity through respecting each individual's opinion is in the play/performance the kids give at the end of the two-week camp. Under the judicious moderation of one of the counsellors, the kids "write" the play, and in the process of writing the play, every individual's input is valued equally. Also in the visual art the kids each camper express him/herself fully and the counsellors cannot stop a kid from using any subject for their art unless it is inappropriate.
