Ethos brings together prominent figures from Italian cultural life, scholars and professionals from various fields of research, and students. The primary aim is to examine major issues in contemporary society from an ethical perspective<\/strong>. Ethos was founded in Rome, Italy, but already has branches in several Italian cities and has established contacts for various memorandums of understanding with groups operating in other countries. The chosen ethical perspective involves taking an external, evaluative view of various activities. This is typically carried out in collaboration with those who work in the fields concerned and who feel an urgent need to consider the relationship between their professional endeavours and broader social and moral goals. The reasons for establishing Ethos are manifold, ranging from the need to address similar issues and problems in an era like ours to the imperative of seriousness, which demands that this be done consciously and with a proper understanding of ethical reflection.
