The Fairness or Justice Approach

For the past few days, in health, we have been learning about ethical approaches. Today, we constructed a hero using a playdoh using our ethical issue. We chose the fairness or justice approach. 

The Fairness (or Justice) Approach states "Treat people the same unless there are morally relevant differences between them." 

• Fair and equitable distribution of good and harm, and/or the social benefits and and social costs, across people in society.

• Fairness requires consistency in the way people are treated. 

• The principle states: TO BE FAIR TO ALL (is ethical) - Social Justice = to be ethical the outcome needs to be fair, inclusive and non-discriminatory.

This is our hero called 'Koro'. Our hero Koro demonstrate a judge. A judge looks at the evidence and reasoning of both people present in the court fairly. The judge's job is to serve justice by rendering a fair impartial decision on the issue.
