Extended Deadline: Sunday, 10 November 2024, 11.59 pm CEST
It is our pleasure to announce the Call for Abstracts for the 19th International Conference on Clinical Ethics and Consultation (ICCEC) to be held on 5-7 June 2025 in Lausanne, Switzerland under the theme “Power, Plurality, and Patient Care: the Socio-Political Dimensions of Clinical Ethics”.
Clinical ethics consultation, or healthcare ethics consultation (HEC), responds to moral uncertainty, plurality, and value conflicts in healthcare. In doing so, it transcends the borders of healthcare and touches on contentious issues of societal and political importance, such as conflicts, migration, gender identity, artificial intelligence, or climate change. Good clinical ethics must consider these broader socio-political issues, and HEC professionals may, in turn, contribute an interesting view to these socio-political debates. This conference will shed light on the socio-political dimensions of HEC, structured in 5 topics that can be addressed across all HEC activities (consultation, education, organizational & policy work, research etc.): (1) HEC and conflict resolution, (2) HEC and social justice, (3) HEC and sustainability, (4) HEC and digital disruption, and (5) HEC and its socio-political dimension in general.
