Camden Ethics Symposium™

 

The Camden Ethics Symposium™, led by Institute president Rushworth Kidder, is a new offering from the Institute: a probing, discussion-based workshop on communicating ethics. This year's offerings will focus primarily on "Ethics and Parenting ."

Different from our training program, the symposium is designed to help participants become voices for values at the local level. Today's "Millennials"—born since 1982—are surprisingly different from youth in prior generations. They still face wrenching ethical dilemmas. But they admire people with clear moral values, love working in teams, and see themselves as the "Us generation." And they typically like their parents. So they're remarkably open to ethical conversations, whenever the adults in their lives have the inspiration, the fameworks, and the examples to raise these issues. This two-day workshop focuses on equipping participants with the skills to engage youth in lively, penetrating discussions about ethics in their homes, schools, workplaces, and communities.
