About this blog

  • Thinking Ethics was a project launched in Geneva to foster the debate about ethics. A few friends, fed up with only reading about abuses in the media, decided to hold a forward-looking seminar on five subjects: ethics and performance, ethics and knowledge, ethics and consciousness, ethics and disobedience and ethics in real time. If moral has to do with right and wrong, then ethics is its application in society. We believe that people need to talk about the subject to determine the level of ethics they want. The book Thinking Ethics, a result of the seminar, is to start the discussion. This blog is a contribution to the conversation.

Experience life as a refugee

The UNHCR has just came out with a game called "against all odds"  that let you experience what it is like to be a refugee. The game is in English, but also offers Swedish, German, Greek and Norwegian.

The game is structured in 3 parts, with 4 or 5 situations. The parts are war and conflict (running from persecution), border country (can I stay here?) and a new life (loss and challenge - yes you can stay here but how will your life be).  Great initiative - play it here.
