Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Bioethical challenges require the commitment of people at all levels, and on all continents. This seminar will explore how philosophy, but also indigenous cultures and different religions, can provide reasons and motivation. In doing so, differences and similarities should become apparent and a basic understanding of interdisciplinary and intercultural as well as interreligious cooperation in ecological issues should emerge.
This blocked seminar is organized in cooperation with a CEEPUS Summer School within the network "Bioethics".
