Welcome to Epidemic Ethics
Led by the World Health Organization and supported by key partners including the Fogarty International Center, Global Forum on Bioethics in Research, Global Health Network, Global Network of WHO Collaborating Centres and Wellcome, Epidemic Ethics is a global community of bioethicists building on pre-existing expertise and resources to provide real-time, trusted, contextual support to communities, policy makers, researchers, and responders in relation to the ethical issues arising out of global health emergencies, with a current focus on the COVID-19 pandemic. If you have experience in bioethics and would like to join the network, please fill out this form.
This is only the beginning of the website, more functionality to follow, including the ethics advisory platform but we thought it was important to start the movement now so as to get ethics experts registered before we launch the full website.
