How Can You Participate?
From posting on social media to organizing an event to publishing an article, there are countless ways to get involved!
As you plan your Global Ethics Day activations, you can start by thinking about these questions:
- What does ethics mean to you?
- How can I take ethical action in my daily life?
- Is there such a thing as a global ethic?
- What ethical questions do I grapple with in my career?
- How do you define ethical leadership?
Complete Carnegie Council’s Ethics & Values Mind Map Activity
Since 2024, we have used the Ethics & Values Mind Map to help students explore how ethical reflection can inform responses to complex issues. After receiving positive feedback from students and requests from educators, we created a digital version that can be completed by anyone, anywhere!
In everyday life, we make judgements based on our values. We learn these values from our upbringing, education, and the people we engage with. At Carnegie Council, we believe that ethics is not about finding one “right” answer, but about strengthening inquiry, considering other perspectives, and engaging in dialogue across differences. What is the ethical issue you want to address?
