Thesis

255 ABOUT THE AUTHOR Anne Ilse Schaap (1990) works driven by a passion for ‘professional ethics’; to support and help facilitate professionals to improve their moral competence and the reflexivity within organizations. After graduating from high school, Anne started her studies with a propaedeutic year in Journalism and continued with a bachelor’s degree in Roman Languages and Cultures at the University of Groningen. During this bachelor, she soon discovered her enthusiasm for philosophy and especially ethics. Therefore, she spent most of her bachelor’s following courses at the Faculty of Philosophy. This path continued at the University of Utrecht, where Anne obtained her Master’s degree in Applied Ethics. During this master, she co-authored a report for the ‘Centre of Ethics and Health’ (CEG, Den Haag) about the ethics of lifestyle interventions by employers, called ‘The tracking employer’. She did an internship on ‘public philosophy’ at the ‘International School for Philosophy (ISVW, Leusden). During these years she has been a writer and editor of the online journal ‘iFilosofie’. She wrote about the ethics of sports, of parenting, and about philosophers such as Nussbaum and Ortega y Gasset. During this internship in 2016, she followed an intensive training at the ISVW and became a facilitator in moral case deliberation. At the end of her Master’s degree, Anne started as an intern at the Department of ‘Ethics, Law and Humanities’ (ERH) of the Amsterdam UMC, location VUmc. This internship quickly led to the start of her PhD research project. In this trajectory ERH collaborated with the Dutch Custodial Institutions Agency (DCIA) to analyze the impact of moral case deliberation sessions with Dutch prison staff. This thesis is the final product of that PhD trajectory, which has also been captured in three Dutch reports on the topics of ‘themes, evaluation and impact’. Since 2023, Anne works as a postdoctoral researcher at the department of ERH in Amsterdam and continues her work on developing and facilitating methods and/or tools for the ethics support for prison staff and management teams. This is done in collaboration with the Educational Institute of the DCIA (Opleidingsinstituut DJI, Den Haag), where Anne now works as a ‘senior scientific policy advisor and developer’.
