Chapter Chapter 8 in Ethics for Social Impact, 2018, pp 143-152 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract An executive director running a US-based nonprofit must decide how to address an ethical breach that occurred in India, where the organization does its fieldwork. This case introduces ethical dilemmas that arise when nonprofits operate in multiple sites around the world, and when executive leadership is unable to directly oversee the fieldwork of the organization’s employees. Also, it discusses ethical issues around reporting requirements, which become even more complicated in international contexts. Handy and Russell ask readers to think across international and cultural lines in this case.
