Engaging the Past to Energize the Future: Creating Space for Inclusive Public Discourse

October 11, 2023 (All day) to October 14, 2023 (All day)

Abstract: The 25th anniversary of the ASBH provides an opportunity for reconsideration of the role of bioethics and humanities in society, including how best to respond to divisive policies and frame honest and open discussions with those with whom we disagree. Part of this reconsideration calls for creating spaces—physical or otherwise—that facilitate interaction and deliberation. In that vein, the 2023 ASBH Annual Conference will address critical questions including: How can we frame conversations and debates to identify substantive discussion points without resorting to pure rhetoric? How best can we solicit the perspectives of key stakeholders when making decisions with broad implications? How can we eliminate racism and other biases routinely built into healthcare access?
