The result of over a year of comprehensive research, collaboration with experts, eyewitnesses, and educators, and exploration of primary sources and museum archives, Stages of Change originates as a series of recorded articles and commentary concerning genocide and the ten stages of genocide as originally outlined by Dr. Gregory H. Stanton. The series is part of a social action project for the prevention of genocide, studying 10 Genocides, over 10 Weeks, ultimately transforming 10 Stages of Genocide to Ten Stages of Change. The purpose of the series is to not only raise awareness of lesser-known global crises from the past and present through an intricate blend of compelling witness narratives, inspiring personal interviews, and extensive research insights, but to provide a set of actions within realistic time constraints that both inspire and can be acted upon immediately to promote change and act against intolerance and hate. Each post in the series offers a provocative, in-depth case study of a specific country or region in focus that has or is currently experiencing genocide, concluding with a conversation on how that genocide is or was represented by the featured stage that week from the 10 Stages framework, and most importantly, the practical, time-sensitive and actionable steps that can be taken specifically to prevent escalation and act against genocide. The Stages of Change website contains resources and print materials as both extensions and support of the actions discussed in the series so that anyone - even with one minute or less - can be a voice for the voiceless and act as an upstander in the fight against genocide, resisting passivity and indifference. One step, one stage, one week....at a time. Follow the stages at StagesOfChange.org and take action today.
