The University of Murcia hosts the launch meeting of the Erasmus + 'Pro-Human Biolaw: The Bio-Law as a Global Tool for the Protection of Human Rights' project from February 10 to 14 to increase the capacity of partner institutions in the field of Teaching and research in Bioderecho.
The project, promoted by the International Doctoral School (EIDUM) together with the Center for Bioderecho, Ethics and Health Studies of UMU (CEBES), aims to form a cast of teachers and highly trained professionals in Bioderecho.
It is thus intended to create a general training, dissemination and transfer space in which to combine specialized training through training courses in Bioderecho;
the dissemination of the subject in conferences and scientific meetings;
the creation of a joint doctorate between Spanish, Mexican and Costa Rican partners;
and the construction of a virtual teaching and resource platform that allows coverage and support this initiative over time.
The meeting will bring together academic and management representatives from universities in France (University of Lille), Italy (Federico II University and University of Campania Luigi Vanvitelli), Costa Rica (University of Costa Rica and Technological Institute of Costa Rica) and Mexico ( San Luis Potosí Autonomous University and University of Guadalajara).
The Bioderecho is a discipline as relevant today as little developed in Europe and in the rest of the world.
However, science has experienced, since the end of the twentieth century, a breakthrough in biotechnology of unimaginable proportions a few years ago.
The magnitude of the fields of research and practical application that have been opened raises serious dilemmas about the future of human existence, life in dignity and the legacy to future generations.
It is necessary to ask whether, in the face of the increasing power of intervention of science in human life, everything that is technically possible is ethically acceptable and, if it is, it would be necessary to ask within what legal limits.
In the Bioderecho converge, on the one hand, the science to reach an advanced and precise knowledge;
on the other, ethics to question its limits;
and finally, the complexity of realities and justice to offer a fair answer.
'Pro-Human BioLaw' is part of the Erasmus + Capacity Development program.
It is funded by the European Commission with one million euros and has a duration of three years.
