This free, 8-week online programme provides a short introduction to some of the ethical issues affecting decisions taken around the beginning and end of life of living things, based on current research from academics at the Uehiro Oxford Institute. Prof Dominic Wilkinson provides a general introduction in week one, and the series continues with a different specialist each Wednesday, addressing themes such as conscience and conscientious objection, age-based decision-making, AI and life extension, the ‘badness’ of death, and difficult decisions in healthcare. The series will finish with a wrap-up discussion looking back at the topics covered, led by Dr Jonathan Pugh.
The final programme is currently subject to change, but will be confirmed shortly.
Registration is free and no prior experience or study is necessary. Each 45-minute class will take place online via Zoom on Wednesday lunchtimes (UK time) and participation in the informal Q&As and discussion sessions following each week’s presentations is warmly encouraged but not required.
Programme dates: 24th June - 12th August. Classes will take place 12:35-13:20 online via Zoom and will typically consist of a 30-minute presentation followed by a Q&A. Please log in a few minutes in advance to ensure a smooth experience.
Please note that the event link is the same for each week, so you need only register for one week if you wish to attend them all.
