More information:
This Globethics.net international conference is organised around the vision that ethics in higher education can only be strengthened through an intergenerational alliance and common effort to build new bridges together. These new bridges are needed to cross the economic, technological and pedagogical divides that the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted and forces us to face. Here is where ethics in higher education matters.
Pre-Conference: 17 to 24 June 2020
The conference aims to translate this vision into a themed conference programme, which builds upon a pre-conference phase from 17 to 24 June 2020 consisting of submission of and online conversations around digital posters and papers.
