The Workshop takes place on June 25 and 26, within the General Assembly of the Pontifical Academy for Life.

The conference will focus on the perspective of Global Bioethics – A Global Responsibility.

An ethics of the person and of persons that is also, necessarily, an ethics of responsibility for the environment in which human beings live and that they will deliver to future generations. “The human being is a creature of this world” – writes Pope Francis in Laudato si’ – and for this “we are not able to overlook consideration of the effects of environmental degradation, of the current model of development and of the culture of waste of the life of people.”

Theme: Global Bioethics

Date: 25-26 June 2018
