Bioethics Education in Brazil

چکیده
This chapter starts with presenting some historical facts that helped to develop bioethics in Brazil. Over the last 42 years, since the birth of the bioethics movement, the points of reference are usually the historical facts in the USA at the beginning of the 1970s (Van Rensselaer Potter and the Georgetown principlist paradigm); in Brazil we have only begun to talk about bioethics during the last two decades (Pessini et al. 2010a). In the 1990s and in Brazil, three historical facts have fostered the growth of the bioethics movement. First, the involvement of physicians in the field through the Federal Council of Medicine (CFM) with the publication of the first journal of bioethics in the country, entitled Bioethics. The first issue of this publication came to light in 1993. Second, the birth of the Brazilian Society of Bioethics in 1995. This society initiated various activities in education and published materials on bioethics, and it also organized eight national conferences of Bioethics so far, with the presence of many renown bioethicists from abroad invited to give presentations in these conferences. Third, at the Federal Government level (specifically the Ministry of Health) one has witnessed the creation of the National Commission for Ethics of Research Involving Human Beings and the enforcement of the Ethical Guidelines for Research Involving Human Beings in 1996 drawn by an ad hoc commission appointed by the Minister of Health and formed with a spirit of interdisciplinary cooperation.1 These three key events encouraged the formation of the Brazilian bioethics movement in its early stages. In our effort to present the state of the art of education in bioethics in Brazil, we take into account this context as a starting point (Sect. 2.1). We go forward
