<p>Dear Colleagues,<br>
<br>
Informatics Europe is partner in the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://sites.google.com/dit.ie/ethics4eu/home">Erasmus+
Project Ethics4 EU - Ethical Computer Science Education for
Europe</a>. The Ethics4EU project, which got a total funding of
near half million euros, aims at creating open source, widely used
concrete resources for the teaching of Ethics in Computer Science
higher education programs across Europe.<br>
<br>
The digital ethical landscape is changing at an astonishing rate,
as technologies become more complex, and people choose to interact
with them in new and distinct ways. It is vitally important that
creators and developers of these technologies do not live in an
ethical vacuum, that they think about the impact, uses and abuses
of their creations, and take some measure to prevent others being
harmed by their work. To equip them with the knowledge to rise to
this challenge and create a positive future for the use of
technology, it is important that ethics becomes integral part of
Computer Science higher education across Europe.<br>
<br>
Informatics Europe will be organizing a <b>multiplier event
within the Ethics4EU project in Zurich on 7 May 2020
(10:00-16:00) </b>at the <b>Institute of Informatics of the
University of Zurich</b>, in Oerlikon. The main goals of the
meeting is to disseminate and create awareness in the region and
country about the core issues addressed by the project, as well as
to foster a networking o people working or interested in the
topics mentioned above. The event will include a number of
speakers and a discussion panel including experts in Ethics,
academics, and professionals working in areas, roles or projects
where ethical or legal aspects are central or highly relevant. A
program will be soon available at: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
