The Connecting Ethos Project

Initiated at the University of Hong Kong, the Connecting Ethos Project represents a digital repository of multimedia resources designed to enhance the teaching and learning of ethics and leadership from a global perspective, connecting concepts from both the East and West.

The most admired leaders and organizations are ethical. They reflect ethos, often defined as character or guiding beliefs. Though this is widely understood, there is a tremendous gap in how we teach ethics and develop ethical leaders.

Informed by teaching in both classrooms and boardrooms, the project has curated a collection of diverse resources to bridge this divide. From exploring traditional ethical issues to unpacking questions that arise from the challenges posed by AI, the Connecting Ethos Project is designed as a continuously growing platform freely available to learners, educational institutions, businesses, and governments.

Please learn, share, and contribute as you join us in connecting ethos.
