developing ethics teaching for the social professions
European Social Ethics Project
This project currently comprises members from a number of institutions
in different European countries involved in the education and training
of socio-education care workers, social pedagogues, community and youth
workers and social workers.
We are currently working on a book of social work ethics cases. If
you would like to contribute please contact Sarah
Banks.
The group began at a seminar organised by FESET (Association Europeénne
des Centres de Formation au Travail Socio-Educatif/European Association
of Training Centres for Socio-Educational Care Work) in October 1998.
The group works under the umbrella of FESET (website: http://www.feset.org).
The project aims to develop our understanding of:
how students conceptualise ethical dilemmas;
what kinds of issues they find problematic;
and how education and training can better prepare them for the ethical
dimensions of practice.
The project is coordinated by
