Innovative Ethics Education for Major Technological and Scientific Challenges
Environmental degradation, advances in biomedicalization, and rampant digitalization are three major contemporary challenges, coextensive with scientific-technological civilization itself. ETHICS4CHALLENGES (E4C) aims at addressing them through flexible ethics education pathways to inculcate the necessary ethical awareness in students of all backgrounds (engineering, sciences, social and human sciences) and foster critical thinking about science/technology in a way that advances core European values.
Partners
ETHICS4CHALLENGES draws on a unique set of partners, from humanities departments embedded in establishedengineering and science schools in Turkey (METU) and Greece (NKUA) to a new social sciences unit from Germany (EUV)and a European university association, specializing in education on science-technology from the human and social sciences(ESST). They aim to develop an online educational platform for modular course design, based on the creation of an ethicshandbook and a case-study inventory.
