About the Article

This Teaching Paper provides a glossary of essential ethical and technological terms relevant to non-profits and development organizations. Each entry includes a concise definition and a practical note to connect theory with real-world application. By standardizing vocabulary across ethics and technology, this resource strengthens accountability, improves communication, and equips practitioners to integrate ethical reasoning into program design, evaluation, and governance.

Key Topics:

  • 30+ essential terms defined with academic precision and practical application
  • Bridging abstract ethics (autonomy, fairness, justice) with applied technology (AI, blockchain, IoT)
  • Case study: NGO digital health project in South Asia
  • Common challenges in adapting ethical language across cultures
  • Reflection questions for academic and practitioner use
  • Academic and practical value as a teaching and governance tool
