Ethics: UNESCO SHS:

"The current revolution in science and technology has led to concern that unbridled scientific progress is not always ethically acceptable. UNESCO?s Programme on the Ethics of Science and Technology reflects this concern and aims to place such progress in a context of ethical reflection rooted in the cultural, legal, philosophical and religious heritage of the various human communities. The Ethics of Science and Technology, including the Bioethics Programme and the World Commission on the Ethics of Scientific Knowledge and Technology (COMEST), is one of UNESCO?s five priority programmes.
