Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Seeks Submissions for Population and Public Health Ethics Casebook
Jul 20th, 2011 by BK
CIHR just announced a call for submissions for a casebook of population and public health ethics. The casebook will help identify ethical dimensions of ‘doing’ population health.
The casebook has three objectives:
- Increase awareness and understanding of population and public health (PPH) ethics, and the value of ethical thinking in PPH research, policy, and practice;
- Highlight cases across PPH research, policy, and practice that feature different ethical issues and dilemmas; and
- Create a tool to support instruction, debate, and dialogue related to cases in population and public health ethics research, policy, and practice.
The deadline for submissions is September 30, 2011. The publication of the casebook is planned for Spring 2012.
