Standards 25 to 28

Section IV – Responsibility to Society

As an ICF Professional, I:

  1. Avoid discrimination by maintaining fairness and equality in all activities and operations, while respecting local rules and cultural practices. This includes but is not limited to, discrimination on the basis of age, race, gender expression, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, disability, or military status.

  2. Recognize and honor the contributions and intellectual property of others, only claiming ownership of my own material. I understand that a breach of this standard may subject me to legal remedy by a third party.

  3. Am honest and work within recognized scientific standards, applicable subject guidelines, and boundaries of my competence when conducting and reporting research.

  4. Am aware of my and my clients’ impact on society. I adhere to the philosophy of “doing good,” versus “avoiding bad.”
