About us
Aims of the School of Applied Global Ethics
SAGE is one of the three constituent schools of the Leslie Silver International Faculty. It is a centre for teaching, research, consultancy and professional development in applied ethics in a global context, which seeks to address global issues and the ethical dilemmas associated with them. In doing so it brings together a number of strands of the university’s activity in which ethics is centrally important. For example, it is concerned with peace, conflict resolution and development in global societies, as well as applied ethics in areas such as health and social care; higher education; technology; disability and special needs. It is an ‘outside in’ school, one that draws on the expertise of staff from across the university and which in turn reaches out across the university and communities to promote the importance of ethical reflection and global perspectives.
