EUREC Projects: TechEthos
- The project will develop guidance for the development and deployment to ensure the highest ethical standards at the EU and international levels
- It will carry out a horizon scan to identify three or four new technologies with high socio-economic impact
- it will then identify and analyse the ethical issues raised by the selected technologies and explore the views and attitudes of expert and lay stakeholders towards them and their ethical implications using scenarios and media analysis.
- The project will develop/refine/extend existing/proposed ethics frameworks, operational guidelines or Codes (e.g., developed in SIENNA, SHERPA, PANELFIT, SATORI and other projects) to enable the effective ethics governance of the technologies
Ethics for Technologies with High Socio-Economic Impact (TechEthos)
Objectives
TechEthos deals with the ethics of new and emerging technologies anticipated to have high socio-economic impact. Such technologies bring with them new ethical challenges and societal consequences that need to be addressed. TechEthos will address the growing ethical challenges and expectations regarding new technologies. The project will reconcile the needs of research and innovation and the legitimate concerns of the society while stimulating innovation and reducing socio-economic inequalities. To do so, it will especially engage with researchers and innovators, research ethics committees (RECs), research integrity (RI) bodies, civil society organisations (CSOs), policymakers and the public.

Duration: Jan 2021 - Dec 2023
