The Ethics Network has initiated a continuing program of research
on ethical concepts and issues to be undertaken over coming months.
Any researcher, teacher or practitioner in ethics who wishes to
contribute is welcome...Contact The
Coordinator.
The program has undertaken research seeking to identify and make
public world's best practice in:
Subsequent research programs will depend on interest and support
but will include:
-
Duty of care. The ethical obligation in the workplace and
elsewhere to ensure that sufficient care is taken to avoid
or minimise the risk of loss of life, harm or financial damage
to others
-
The Law and Ethics
-
Ethics, the environment and future generations
The Network is concentrating on empirical research that has an
impact on ethical practices, and on disseminating the results of
that research. Research on ethical theory will be concerned about
concepts that guide decisions on behaviour. The research will be,
for the most part, applicable across all disciplines.
