Or perhaps "pathfinding responsibilty/obligation" along the lines below. Although in a different context, this author also talks about an obligation to support (continuing effort) or promote certain goals that have yet to be achieved.
"Becoming an educator means assuming a responsibility to keep abreast of developments in the field. This will require a continuing effort on your part. Just as important, it means assuming a pathfinding responsibility--the burden of seeking the truth in a field riddled with controversy and distortion."
