Do Your Part to Address Climate Change: VOTE!🌎 ✅ “Let’s be realistic. No single politician, government, or industrial leader can unilaterally implement the level of emissions reduction needed, and no single policy will bring emissions production to net zero. But any hope of containing the damage requires us to elect leaders who acknowledge the climate crisis and its cause. So, vote in every election you can.” NEW Hastings Bioethics Forum essay by Cheryl Macpherson a professor at St George’s University School of Medicine.

About us
The Hastings Center mission Founded in 1969 The Hastings Center is the longest-serving independent, nonpartisan bioethics research institute in the world. The Hastings Center's mission is to address fundamental ethical issues in health, health care, life sciences research and the environment that affect individuals, communities, and societies. We serve the bioethics community and the public at large. Hastings does original research, publishes two journals -- Hastings Center Report and Ethics & Human Research -- and Hastings Bioethics Forum blog, has a visiting scholar program, and offers public lectures and seminars. Scholarship Scholarship focuses on five program areas where national and global communities face serious challenges and where bioethics can help. Children and Families Aging, Chronic Conditions, and End of Life Health and Health Care Science and the Self Humans and Nature Unique process Hastings uses a research process allows for informed dialogue among intentionally diverse views. A classic Hastings Center project addresses important, unanswered questions and purposely convenes people who are likely to hold diverse views on that question. Hastings staff are expert in facilitating frank conversations. Our approach is fairly well-specified, yet at the same time, it is a free-flowing process that our scholars adapt for each project. Revenue Research grants, income from a modest reserve fund and generous donations support the Hastings' work. Location The Hastings Center is housed at "Woodlawn," a mid-19th century estate house on the Hudson River in Garrison, New York.

The Hastings Center reposted this
▶️ The Keynote ‘The #Rediscovery of #Bioethics’ by Professor Vardit Ravitsky at the DRZE anniversary symposium is online! Watch it on YouTube: https://lnkd.in/e4pqHsys 💡 Bioethics – a hub of thinking and activity According to keynote speaker Professor Vardit Ravitsky, President and CEO of The Hastings Center, bioethics must rethink itself. It must confidently locate itself in the present and build bridges from health issues to questions of overall human well-being. Even before the coronavirus pandemic has it become clear that bioethicists must not only consider questions relating to the human being, but also questions relating to the whole of living nature. The focus of bioethics oriented in this way must be shifted from the individual to the collective, from the local to the global and from science to practice. After all, what is the purpose of a theory that is not applied? And how can bioethics act as a hub that builds interdisciplinary bridges? Professor Ravitsky addressed these and other questions in her keynote lecture ‘The Rediscovery of Bioethics’ on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the DRZE. ➡️ More information on our symposium: drze.de/25th Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn
