The Second Cycle of the School of Ethics Program

The School of Ethics of the Youth Caucus Ethics Forum William C. McCoy is a traditional activity within the Youth Caucus association, implemented by the Youth Caucus Ethics Forum William C. McCoy.

The aim of the School of Ethics is to bring young people closer to ethical reasoning, to open perspectives for critically defining good and bad decisions as objective factors, to incorporate ethical action in the business and consumer spheres, to familiarize participants with the academic roots of ethics and moral philosophy, the concept of ethics in leadership and its implementation in the education system and in (digital) technologies.

The second cycle of the School of Ethics was held at the Faculty of Political Sciences of the University of Belgrade, from December 5 to 7, 2025.

Lecturers in the second cycle of the program included Professor Dr. William C. McCoy from Clemson University, Professor Dr. Dragan Đukanović from the Faculty of Political Sciences of the University of Belgrade, Lazar Jovčić and Jelena Ivković from the Belgrade Open School, as well as members of the Youth Caucus.
