Overview
Given that the essence of moral thought is to address and ameliorate human suffering, and to expand human freedoms, how can we afford not to attend to moral clarity when it comes to international relief and development?
The Center for Values in International Development seeks to apply the insights, analytical frameworks, knowledge, and experience that already exist within the field of international development ethics, to guide relief and development practice.
We continue the dialogue with our third of five conversations with today’s focus on Empowerment as part of The Center’s ethical development series building an effective bridge between the practitioners’ community and the ethicists’ community, to the mutual benefit of both, and to the significant improvement in the effectiveness of international relief and development.
