“Thinking ahead” is the motto of the 11th World Congress of Bioethics. And indeed, our global community is confronted with numerous challenges that call for a forward-looking, constructive exchange of bioethics scholars from all over the world, representing different cultural contexts, life experiences, and priorities.
Rotterdam, the city of Erasmus, the eminent humanist scholar, is a more than worthy place for this endeavor.
Twenty years ago, the International Association of Bioethics was founded in Amsterdam. Your contributions to the 2012 World Congress will be a wonderful birthday present.
