Building, Challenging and Transforming Systems in Bioethics 686n4n

Amar Jesani and Joseph Ali discuss how bioethical systems are built through institutions, resistance, and everyday practice. They encourage us to consider the multi-dimensional aspects of systems, including how they are actively contested and constructed and the dynamics between institutional insiders and outsiders. Amar started his career as an activist and has played a pivotal role in shaping the field of bioethics in India. Joseph is an Associate Professor and the Associate Director for Global Programs at Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Ethics, USA. He has been involved in establishing and operating various programmes to strengthen bioethics in his home country and internationally. *** This podcast is funded by Wellcome.
