This UNESCO Chair in collaboration with the Faculty of Bioethics of the Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum in Rome and the European University of Rome, has the mission of analyzing and improving the understanding of bioethical issues in relation to human rights. The activities of the Institute (teaching, scientific research, and dissemination of its line of thought) are founded on a humanist model of bioethics of Christian inspiration.
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) signed an agreement with the UNESCO Chair in Bioethics and Human Rights. The Chair, which makes part of the Institute of Bioethics and Human Rights, promotes the exchange of ideas and the sharing of experiences through a dialogue with higher-education institutions in various countries, especially developing ones.
Thanks to the generosity of our donors we have consistently supported the UNESCO Chair providing funding for inter-religious dialogue on bioethical themes.
