Foundation missions
Its mission is to be a platform for dynamic exchange on the healthcare challenges of the 21st century.
It focuses on the impact of new medical developments on society. It acts as a link between the scientific world, IGOs, NGOs and citizens.
Why focus on ethical and bioethical issues in healthcare?
This concerns each and every one of us.
The challenges of current medical research involve ethical decisions, the creation of laws, the economic support of new technologies, decisions on access to health for all, and the development of equitable health policies.
