The world around us is a smorgasbord of beliefs, claims, rules and norms about how we should live and behave.
It’s important to tease this jumble of ethical pressures apart so we can put them in their proper place. Otherwise, it can be hard to know what to do when some of these requirements contradict others.
Let’s talk about three different categories of demands on how we should live: ethics, morality and law.

ABOUT THE ETHICS CENTRE
The Ethics Centre is an independent not-for-profit that advocates for a more ethical society.
A team of innovators, thought leaders and conveners of people and ideas, we deliver a range of services including original programs, consulting, leadership and an ethics helpline designed to bring ethics to the centre of everyday life.
Across our work, we aim to diagnose, prevent and cure the sources of ethical failure, to increase ethical literacy through education and information, and develop tools to empower good decision making.
The Centre’s programs are recognised for stimulating public awareness and understanding, creating a space for open, honest and often difficult conversations.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of The Ethics Centre, and we’re committed to educating, engaging and informing for a better world for the 30 years to come.
