Non-Profit Ethical Dilemma
Review this week’s Learning Resources and focus on how ethical conduct can be addressed in NPOs/NGOs. Select an NPO/NGO that has encountered an ethical issue or dilemma. It may be an issue currently affecting the organization or one from the past that has not yet been resolved. Find a current media link that discusses the issue or dilemma. Consider individuals in the organization who would be responsible for addressing the issue or dilemma. Think about how the issue or dilemma could be resolved or could have been prevented.
The post must be 1.5-2 pages and include:
a brief summary of an ethical dilemma involving a nonprofit or non-governmental organization and a current media link regarding the dilemma.
Explain specific ethical concerns that created the dilemma.
Propose strategies that might prevent or resolve the issue or dilemma.
