Global Bioethics Library

Vorathep (Dev) Sachdev is leading a project called “Global Bioethics Library” in collaboration with the Black and Brown in Bioethics (BBB) team. BBB are building an open-access library of resources that centres academic literature and other forms of knowledge (podcasts, images, blogposts, videos, etc.) related to bioethics and global health that are considered to be Sub-altern, Third World, Eastern, Global South, Regional, Religious, Decolonial, Postcolonial, Feminist, Queer, Indigenous, and Disability Ethics, among others.

Please provide any recommendations you have for such resources you have produced or have found helpful in your own learning/research/teaching/training using this form. Be as broad as possible in your suggestions, as we do not aim to classify what should and should not fit but hope to organise and introduce these resources in a way that can be user-friendly.

This library is a response to a shared experience we have heard from many colleagues internationally. Bioethics largely prioritises Western-centric texts as canonical work, leaving individual academics responsible for exploring “alternative” perspectives independently—a task that can be confusing and difficult to undertake alone. The library will be a resource for learning, researching, teaching, and training.  In this shared effort to build a global library, we would appreciate your help in sending us any resources  you may think are relevant. 

If you have any questions, please contact the project lead, Dev (vorathep112@gmail.com).
