Stavros Niarchos Foundation Bioethics Academy WEBINAR

The rapidly spreading Covid-19 pandemic and its unprecedented implications on people, cultures, and economies, has changed our world dramatically, challenging governments and societies to continuously adapt and respond quickly.

The role of ethics and ethical considerations during this time are receiving great attention and many new intricate and delicate topics have been conceived and are being debated.

Although we were not able to host the 2nd SNFBA Bioethics Summer Course this past June because of these extraordinary times, we would like to stay connected with SNFBA alumni, as well as those interested in participating in our future events by offering an SNFBA Webinar.

We cordially invite you to join us on Monday, September 14, 2020, 4:00-6:00pm (GR) to unravel some of the prominent and interesting ethical dilemmas that affect us all during this very unique period (see program below).

The event Zoom link will be distributed to registered attendees prior to the event.
