Abstract

Projects should improve unsatisfying situations, contributing thereby to the quality of life. The differences between the initial and end states of the systems that are changed by a project are evaluated with a set of ethical principles and values. In addition, the activities and the process from initiation to completion are evaluated with a set of principles of conduct governing the individuals and groups that are involved in the project.
