About This Course

In this course, we will explore some of the most important ethical issues facing humans. Corruption and unethical behaviour exist in some form in every country in the world. The challenge for world leaders is to address unethical behaviour and corruption so that the citizens of all nations can prosper and be part of the development of nations. The battle against corruption and unethical behaviour can start with ordinary people and the way they behave and promote ethical behaviour in others.

Part of the Moral Education curriculum, this course seeks to foster in students a set of universal values, which will enable them to peacefully interact and connect with people from different cultural and social groups who hold different views and perspectives. It seeks to empower them to become active, responsible, local and global citizens. It enables them to develop mutual understanding, respect for difference and empathy in order to sustain our cohesive and prosperous society. Through dialogue and interaction, students are provided with opportunities to explore different worldviews, to challenge one another's assumptions and attitudes and to develop the knowledge, skills and attitude necessary to think critically, to make informed ethical decisions and to act on them in the interests of their society.
