Assignment Instructions
Use this template to prepare your paper.
Step 1: Select the Organization
Select a UAE-based organization focused on a distributive justice issue. This means that your
organization should focus on a social justice issue (e.g., access to education, clean water, and
health services).
You may select a
(1) volunteer organization,
(2) a non-profit organization, OR
(3) a public-service organization in the UAE whose work focuses on some distributive justice
topics.
Some examples include but are not limited to, are:
Emirates Down Syndrome Association (EDSA)
A non-profit organization based in the UAE that supports and empowers individuals with Down
Syndrome and their families.
Dubai Cares
A non-profit organization that works to improve access to quality education in developing
countries. Their work includes building schools, providing teacher training, and supporting
innovative education programs that promote equity and social justice.
Emirates Foundation
A non-profit organization that works to empower youth and promote social entrepreneurship in
the UAE
Gulf for Good
A charity organization that organizes adventure challenges and expeditions to raise funds for
various social causes.
Thrift for Good
A thrift shop that aims to reduce clothing waste and help children, in partnership with Gulf for
Good.
Senses Residential and Day Care for Special Needs
The first residential care facility in the Middle East that provides people of determination 24/7
care. Step 2: Organization Overview
Once you have selected your organization, introduce it and apply #SystemAnalysis to describe
the organization and its operations clearly. Identify the distributive justice issue the organization
aims to address with a precise application of #Purpose. In relation to its #Purpose, explain how
the organization addresses an issue and its decisions and actions. You may consider using
media sources, which must be cited, to provide an example of the organization's activities.
Step 3: Assessment of Frameworks #EthicalConsiderations
Using your classroom materials, identify the #EthicalConsiderations by understanding the
actions of your selected organization through at least two ethical frameworks. You must select
ethical frameworks covered in this course to understand your selected social justice issue.
Identify the ethical dilemma that your organization is concerned with. Interpret the issue through
the different ethical frameworks. If your organization is clearly using an ethical framework,
clearly state and explain that. Then, compare it to another framework. If it is unclear which
framework the organization is using, present the issue through the two or more ethical
frameworks you see suitable. As you consider each ethical framework, use your knowledge of
#SystemAnalysis to help you identify ethical conflicts, effects, tensions, and implications that
may arise when addressing the social justice issue.
Step 4: Stance and Defense #EthicalJudgment
After considering the different frameworks, decide which ethical framework should be followed
by weighing the relevant ethical considerations in light of the situation. Exercise your ethical
judgment by defending your considered position by considering and addressing alternatives and
counter-arguments and identifying courses of action that best advance that position in the given
circumstances.
Step 5: Conclusion
In this section, you will briefly summarize the key points made in this assignment. Note that you
should also go beyond merely summarizing what you previously said. Reflect on the information
that you have acquired and come to new conclusions based on that information.
For instance:
Does the organization's ability to solve its issue (or not) tell us something else about the
complex system (e.g., city, emirate, society) that it is embedded in?
Do you think the organization could act in different ways? What would better solve the issue and
resolve the ethical conflicts and issues it faces? Are there any barriers or challenges that the organization faces when attempting to address this
distributive justice issue, and how can these be overcome?
