Our People
The Center for Digital Ethics and Policy (CDEP) was founded through the School of Communication at Loyola University Chicago in an effort to foster more dialogue, research, and guidelines regarding ethical behavior in online and digital environments.
Along with research-driven insights and publications, our outreach is local, global and multimodal. We will be celebrating our 15th Annual International Symposium on Digital Ethics in 2026.
