Working for the greater good...

Since APPE's founding, the world has undergone significant change. Across a variety of domains, we face uniquely new and persistent challenges that push the boundaries of current ethical standards and frameworks. 

Today's ethical dilemmas require innovative, collaborative, and interdisciplinary approaches.  As an organization dedicated to these principles and embedding the practice of ethics and ethical decision-making into all aspects of society, APPE's work has greater potential impact now than ever.

APPE Sponsorship

The Association for Practical and Professional Ethics (APPE) provides sponsorship opportunities to corporations, businesses, universities, and organizations that demonstrate a commitment to the values and mission of APPE.  APPE does not sell products of sponsoring entities nor does APPE ask its members to sell or use those products.  An affiliation as a sponsor does not imply an endorsement whereby APPE favors one entity over another.  

Sponsorships are a meaningful way to support the work of APPE and we are grateful for those who partner with us.  APPE sponsors are able to build relationships within the ethics community, market their brand to APPE's unique and targeted constituency, and demonstrate care for a stronger and more ethical society.
