    Goals of Assignment 3: Independently, you will examine how organizations in the real world
    solve ethical problems related to distributive justice through a Complex (Social)
    #SystemAnalysis. Your goal is to apply #EthicalConsiderations and #EthicalJudgment to your
    chosen organization’s decisions and activities.
    Assignment Instructions

    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
    topic.

    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?
    Step 6: APA-Style #Professionalism
    A reference page formatted in APA style.

     Ideas and examples summarized or paraphrased from other authors must be appropriately
    cited. Do not use quotes in this assignment.
     If you have any questions about APA style and referencing, refer to this resource.
    Please note that you should adhere to APA Style & Format throughout your paper. This includes

    headings.
