Exemplary Behavior of September: Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi’s Conscientious Struggle

Throughout September, the Conscience Foundation volunteers determined conscientious behaviors every week. However, it was Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi's conscientious struggle that left its mark on September. Ayşenur was an activist who fought against injustice and stood by the oppressed throughout her life. Ayşenur, who could not remain silent against the oppression experienced especially in Palestine, went to the West Bank and stood in solidarity with the Palestinian people.




Unfortunately, he was shot dead by Israeli soldiers during a protest in the West Bank resort of Beita on September 6, 2023. His courage and fight for human rights were considered exemplary behavior not only for the week but for the entire month of September .

This struggle was a source of inspiration that directly aligned with our foundation’s vision and values. We will always remember Ayşenur’s sacrifice and continue her fight for justice. You can access the blog post announcing Ayşenur’s selection as the exemplary conduct of the week here.

Other Conscientious Acts of September

Throughout September, a number of inspiring actions were selected weekly. Conscience Foundation volunteers made these selections using the Conscience Scale . This scale assesses an action’s relevance to human rights, social benefit and ethical responsibility. With this template, which anyone can use, we can reflect on what it means to be conscientious. Here are some other conscientious actions that were highlighted in September:

The Conscience Scale: How Do We Assess Whether a Behavior Is Conscientious?

As the Conscience Foundation, we use an assessment tool called the Conscience Scale when determining weekly exemplary behaviors. This scale analyzes a behavior's contribution to human rights, benefit to society, ethical responsibility and pursuit of justice. Our volunteers and followers can also use this template to think about whether a behavior is conscientious. You can access our Conscience Scale here.

These conscientious behaviors selected in September will remain as inspiring examples for all of us who fight for social justice and human rights. As the Conscience Foundation, we will continue to support everyone who fights for justice and humanity.
