ABSTRACT

This article explores the biomedical ethics education module that is used in the UNESCO Bioethics Core Curriculum. Many universities across several countries have not yet incorporated bioethics into their curriculums. We believe that introducing UNESCO Bioethics Core Curriculum Casebook Series in universities will provide an incentive to include such a module in study programs, thus offering a strong foundation for the teaching and learning of biomedical ethics. In this article, the authors describe how they introduced teachers and students to the UNESCO-Bioethics Core Curriculum, based on the 2005 Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights and then examined the model of biomedical ethics education provided in the UNESCO Bioethics Core Curriculum Casebook Series. As per the curriculum, the authors suggest that the teaching module should include the following four elements: objectives, content, methods, and evaluation.
