Warwick Anderson | 14 May Sydney Health Ethics Conversation Series 'Bioethics for the Planet?'
Hi everyone, Please join us for the next SHE Conversation series with Professor Warwick Anderson<https://t.e2ma.net/click/r5os2t/zzp74o8/jr8bdqp>. Professor Warwick Anderson: Bioethics for the Planet? Abstract At the Monash palazzo in Prato in 2024, a group of ethicists, planetary health experts, social scientists, and humanities scholars assembled to devise a practical program to expand bioethics so as to incorporate environmental (and climate) ethics more effectively. After much discussion, and some heated debate, we wrote a manifesto, published last year in The Lancet, Bioethics for the Planet<https://t.e2ma.net/click/r5os2t/zzp74o8/zj9bdqp>. Since then, I’ve worked with Prof Jakelin Troy<https://t.e2ma.net/click/r5os2t/zzp74o8/fcacdqp>et al. on Indigenous articulations with planetary health, and with Profs Lisa Adkins<https://t.e2ma.net/click/r5os2t/zzp74o8/v4acdqp> and Louise Baur<https://t.e2ma.net/click/r5os2t/zzp74o8/bxbcdqp> et al. on intergenerational equity in planetary health, and with Genevieve Dally-Watkins<https://t.e2ma.net/click/r5os2t/zzp74o8/rpccdqp> on multispecies justice and planetary health. But where to from here? I hope we can talk more about the project and what might be done.
