Ethics of Development
- To understand development ethics as an essential dimension of international development studies, for explanatory work and self-awareness as well as in evaluation and policy design.
- To recognize issues in values-sensitive thinking about development: in conceptualizing costs and benefits, assessing who bears them, and asking which types of change process are legitimate.
- To become alert to which issues, identities, and interests get considered and which get downgraded or ignored.
- To identify relevant tools in development ethics for description, analysis/evaluation, and action.
