Through case studies, reports, and structured learning materials, we help educators and students examine the intersection of finance, technology, and human rights—equipping the next generation of analysts and fiduciaries with frameworks for ethical decision-making.
1. Lesson & Curriculum Support
Faculty can incorporate Ethics VC research into courses on finance, policy studies, human rights, technology ethics, or global governance. Available resources include:
Lesson Guidance
Short outlines aligning Ethics VC case studies with learning objectives, discussion prompts, and suggested readings.
Case Study Kits
Downloadable, classroom-ready packets with background data, evidence trails, and guiding questions.
Guest Lectures & Workshops
Faculty may request virtual guest speakers or topic-focused teach-ins for classes or research programs.
Capstone & Independent Study Support
Guidance for students conducting endowment, VC-exposure, or ethical-investment research projects.
2. Endowment & Policy Research Support
Universities reviewing their endowment oversight processes or investment policies may collaborate with Ethics VC researchers to:
- Explore frameworks for human rights due diligence in VC and PE holdings
- Access case studies and methodologies for assessing exposure and documenting risk
- Review briefings summarizing fiduciary standards (ERISA, UPMIFA, OECD, UNGPs, ESG)
- Identify opportunities for joint research or data-sharing projects
Faculty and administrators can request a research briefing or consultation.
3. Joint Research & Publication Opportunities
