Ethical Coders has a lot of fun activities throughout the year. We regularly conduct meet at ArtScience Museum for our book club where we read and debate cool sci-fi books, movies and games.
We also conduct ethics workshops for community groups, schools and youth clubs. Our founder Zara Khanna most recently delivered "The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence" at the global conference for She Loves Tech, the world's largest startup platform for women and tech in over 70 countries.
If you love to code, build awesome tech, or are interested in ethical tech, join us. There is no better way to inspire great tech than through the humanities.
“If you can’t give me poetry, can’t you give me poetical science?”
BOOK CLUB
We regularly review a sci-fiction book or movie. We don’t think tech is just about coding, it’s about art and literature too so we can think about how our tech can be used in the world. Questions to think about: was this technology used for good or bad? could it be used differently? should it be made available to everyone? Dive in folks! Facilitated by Zara Khanna.
In collaboration with the awesome ArtScience Museum.

ETHICS WORKSHOPS
doing the right thing
As more youth not only use more technology, but study it and look towards a career in tech, they must learn to evaluate the ethics of technology.
Through a series of scenarios including developing a game and building a self-driving car, the workshop debates how to develop and consume technologies, and illustrates five principles to review the ethics of technology, including risks, accountability, privacy, transparency and equity.
Our first workshop was conducted in partnership with Code in the Community, which has taught thousands of youth in Singapore the basics of coding.
