Sammendrag
This article tells the story of the Programme for Ethics Research of the Research Council of Norway (1992–2001) and Dagfinn Føllesdal’s role within that programme. Our claim is that Føllesdal decisively contributed to the strategic development of the programme, which was later evaluated as having been innovative, unique, and a national and international example when it comes to ethics research education. Føllesdal contributed not least through his empha- sis on high scientific quality and what was termed “double competence”. The article also relates the Ethics Program to Føllesdal’s own thinking about ethics and his emphasis on open, empathic discussions about complex ethical themes.
