The Association for Practical and Professional Ethics (APPE) is a non-profit professional organization that supports research, training, and education in practical and professional ethics. It was founded in 1991 with support from Indiana University and the Lilly Endowment to encourage interdisciplinary scholarship and teaching among educators and practitioners.[1] The association sponsors the Intercollegiate Ethics Bowl.[2][3] The association was hosted on the Indiana University Bloomington campus until mid-2017, when APPE moved to the Prindle Institute for Ethics at DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana.[4][5]
