Beschreibung:

Increasing attention is being paid to ethical issues relating to research and innovation as society, investors and research funders have become more critical of the implications of new developments.

In areas such as life sciences the ethical issues are well communicated, but for many engaged in ICT these may not be so obvious.

This workshop provides a compact introduction to the topic of ethics to ICT practitioners. It aims to give participants confidence so that they are able to identify the ethical issues with respect to their own work, and understand the implications for the future.

Target Group

The workshop is particularly suitable for those whose work is likely to be regarded critically from an ethical point of view. This includes operators and procurers of ICT systems, ICT decision makers, ICT managers and people in charge for designing ICT guidelines and Corporate Social Responsibility strategies, public officials, researchers and developers, especially those applying for national and EU funding. European and national funding advisors may also find this a helpful introduction to a topic on which they may have to give advice.

The workshop will be given in English.
