About
The result of over a year of comprehensive research, cooperation with museum archives, primary sources, and eyewitness accounts as well as interviews, 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, and transforming 10 Stages to 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 week provides an 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 stage is or was evident in the featured genocide, and most importantly, the practical, time-sensitive and actionable steps that can be taken specifically to work against it. 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 as an upstander in the fight against genocide.
