Constructing a lexicon
As part of Work Package 3: Ethics of Research Practice, Professor Jane Rendell and Dr Yael Padan are devising a toolkit comprising of various guidelines, protocols, and exercises to run the workshop
‘Ethics in Colour: Co-constructing a Lexicon’.
The workshop was first tested as part of the KNOW Annual Workshop with participants from across the KNOW project, in Havana, Cuba, in February 2019, and subsequently used as part of a RELIEF workshop by the Institute for Global Prosperity at UCL, in Lebanon in March 2019. during the second KNOW Workshop in Havana (February 2019), we asked all KNOW collaborators the question ‘What does ethics mean to you?’.
Their responses are presented in the grid below. Edited by Ulrikke Andersen, 2019

Practicing ethics: Guides
These guides, curated by the Bartlett’s Ethics Commission in collaboration with KNOW, and edited by WP3 Lead Investigator, Jane Rendell, offer insights by experienced researchers into how to negotiate the ethical dilemmas that can arise during a research project. The aim is to help you practise built environment research ethically. David Roberts (Bartlett Ethics Fellow 2015-20) devised the format and structure of these guides to follow the ethical issues that arise during the development of a research process – from planning, to conducting, to communicating and producing outcomes – and Ariana Markowitz wrote some of the introductory text that runs across all guides. The guides focus on the different kinds of ethical issues you might encounter as a result of using specific processes or methods, and pay attention to the particular contexts and ways in which these methods are practised. Because when practising research, methods and context inform one another, we consider this series of guides as embedded in a mode of applied ethics called situated or relational ethics. Where you see words that are highlighted, they refer back to our definitions of key ethical principles and to terms contained in institutional protocols as found on Practising Ethics.
