New: the Bioethics Education Network Europe (BENE)!
BENE, is the abbreviated name of the Bioethics Education Network Europe. This European network of teachers, academics and researchers active in medical ethics/bioethics education in Europe focuses on that same education. Because education in medical ethics in the medical curriculum is becoming increasingly common in the Netherlands and Europe, says Mariëlle Diepeveen, herself a lecturer in medical ethics within the AUMC Department of Ethics, Law and Humanities. "With this new initiative we can structurally exchange experiences and reflect on our educational practice. We can then use this to further develop ethics education."
Founded in February of this year, BENE wants to exchange experiences and practical examples. And also promote and improve the quality of ethics education. To achieve this, BENE will organize meetings, webinars and joint (research) activities. BENE focuses on everyone who provides or coordinates (bio)ethics and/or medical ethics education at the university or college.
On November 28 from 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM, BENE will organize the first activity: a webinar entitled 'Why Teaching Matters in Bioethics?' This webinar is free to attend - you must register. You can read more information about this webinar here.

| The Festival of Unexpected Subjects is back! |
|
| On June 25th, we will gather at the historic Zonnehuis (in Amsterdam) to explore the theme: 'Art (as) Care.’ This year, we have curated an amazing lineup of workshops, exhibitions, and music performances for you. And we would be thrilled to see you all there!
On this cheerful festival, artists, social scientists, philosophers and the audience explore ways to think about, cherish and practice caring and being cared for, in particular through art or mundane makings. In what ways is art caring? How may care include art? How can we support art-as-care, or argue for the unarguable?
At the festival, we care-fully experiment with the place of the audience. This isn’t just a festival to watch: it’s a place to participate and experience. Expect music, dance, and hands/heads/hearts-on workshops that will challenge and surprise you.
Curious about the program? Our festival line-up is officially live! 🌿
