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.

Social responsible investing

Interesting contribution from Hao Lu below for the NGO Manager: e-library

Apart from work, I recently prepared a short reader about foundation/charity/NPO and Socially Responsible Investment, for the NGO Manager website, perhaps one of best-known non-profit management resource website online of its kind. Given their explicit philanthropic mission and considerable asset size, it makes sense for foundations, charities and NPOs to practice SRI rather than only preaching to the private sector. However, this seems to be a rather underdeveloped area due to lack of awareness and understanding among them. So I hope that this reader might be a meaningful attempt in this regard.

As this subject may be of interest to your work, I am taking the liberty to send you this link at
