Content of Our Character
The Content of Our Character project brought together approximately 50 twenty-somethings from across the nation to Durham, North Carolina, in August 1998, in order to share ideals and develop a vision for ethical leadership. They collectively wrote a covenant outlining guiding principles and policy options in four fields: politics, markets, civil society, and communities.

Hart Leadership Program at Duke University
The Hart Leadership Program (HLP) was founded in 1986 with a generous gift from the Milledge A. Hart III Family Endowment. The HLP is the first endowed undergraduate leadership program in the country and is a pioneer in academic service-learning programs. To date, more than 2,500 students have taken HLP courses and nearly half of those have participated in some form of service-learning experience.

The International Center for Ethics, Justice & Public Life
The International Center for Ethics, Justice, and Public Life at Brandeis University exists to illuminate the ethical dilemmas and obligations inherent in global and professional leadership, with particular focus on the challenges of racial, ethnic, and religious pluralism. Examining responses to past conflicts, acts of intervention, and failures to intervene, the Center seeks to enable just and appropriate responses in the future. Engaging leaders and future leaders of government, business, and civil society, the Center crosses boundaries of geography and discipline to link scholarship and practice through publications, programs, and projects.
