Program Overview

Hosted by AIA Cleveland with AIA Columbus and AIA Cincinnati.

Ethical dilemmas in a changing culture, nationally and internationally, include problems that are intertwined with project management, which architects face daily. These changes include how the architectural profession responds to issues such as a global pandemic, energy consumption issues, unrest and war, racism, cyber-attacks, and how the AIA’s Code of Ethics & Professional Conduct has recently been amended to address equity, sexual harassment, executions, prolonged solitary confinement in places of incarcerations, and the environment.

How the profession answers these current changes many times involve ethical decisions that impact the health, safety, and welfare of the public.
