Step II: Formulate Alternative Courses of Action and Evaluate their Ethical Dimensions

• What are the short- and long-term options, given the assessment of the public health issue and context in Step I?

• What are the ethical dimensions and tensions of each option? o Utility: Does the public health action produce the best balance

and burdens distributed fairly ( distributive justice )? Is there appropriate public participation , including the participation of affected parties (procedural justice )?

o Respect for Individual and Community Interests: Does the public health action respect self-determination and human rights , as well as civic roles and community values (e.g., trustworthiness, solidarity) (Dawson and Jennings 2012 )?
