About Ethics4EU Project
The Ethics4EU project aims at creating open source, widely used concrete resources for the teaching of Ethics in Computer Science higher education programmes across Europe. Digital Ethics deals with the impact of Digital Information and Communication Technologies on our societies and the environment at large. It encompasses a range of issues and concerns from privacy and agency around personal information, digital literacy, big data including governance and accountability, the dominance of a small number of large network platforms, pervasive technology, the Internet of Things and surveillance applications, Artificial Intelligence and algorithmic decision making including the fairness, accountability, and transparency of those automated decisions, and automating human intelligence for robotics or autonomous vehicles. Importantly, it is not only about hardware and software, but it also concerns systems and how people, organizations, society and technology interact.
