Conference Announcement Theme: Religious Pluralism in Healthcare Type: Online Workshop Institution: Monash Bioethics Centre, Monash University Location: Online Date: 16.–18.7.2021 __________________________________________________ Monash Bioethics Centre, in conjunction with the Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics, Oxford University, the University of Melbourne, and the Charles Sturt University Practical and Public Ethics Research (PAPER) Group, will be hosting an online workshop on ‘Religious Pluralism in Healthcare’ from Friday 16 July to Sunday 18 July 2021 (inclusive). This workshop is part of the Australian Research Council Discovery Project (DP190101597) on ‘Religion, pluralism, and healthcare practice: a philosophical assessment’. This project aims to develop a systematic approach to accommodating religious values and practices in healthcare. Current approaches are often ad hoc and discriminatory, and many countries are becoming more religiously diverse, so a systematic approach to this is needed.

Workshop sessions will be held during the following two-hour time windows, on each day of the workshop: - 12pm-2pm Oxford, UK time - 9pm-11pm Melbourne, Australian EST - 7am-9am Eastern Indiana/upstate New York, time Structure of workshop sessions Each workshop session will begin with the paper author(s) or assigned commentator providing a short (five minute) summary of the paper assigned to them.
