Center
for
Global
Ethics

 

 
The CENTER FOR GLOBAL ETHICS coordinates the work of thinkers, scholars and activists from around the world, who are working to define, implement and promote policies of responsible global citizenship. As profoundly interconnected members of a global community, we recognize the need to develop and advance the acceptance of a viable and sustainable Global Ethic. 

The CENTER FOR GLOBAL ETHICS is sponsored by a not-for-profit (501c3) organization associated with the Dialogue Institute and the Journal of Ecumenical Studies, located at Temple University, a state-related university in Philadelphia, PA 19122. The Center, the Institutes, and the Journal are directed by Leonard Swidler, Professor of CatholicThought and Interreligious Dialogue at Temple University.
