Debates and discourses for teaching bioethics to a research ethics secretariat in Nairobi, Kenya: A report
Abstract:
Debates and discourse are effective means of teaching or learning bioethics. Opportunities for continuous training in bioethics are inadequate in low- and middle-income countries. This report highlights the experiences of teaching bioethics to the secretariat of the Scientific and Ethics Review Unit, a research ethics committee in Kenya. The participants were introduced to bioethics through discourse and debates, and their learning experiences or recommendations were noted. Debates and discourses were considered interesting, thought-provoking, informative, engaging, practical, and interactive ways of learning bioethics.
