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.
期刊介绍：
The Indian Journal of Medical Ethics (formerly Issues in Medical Ethics) is a platform for discussion on health care ethics with special reference to the problems of developing countries like India. It hopes to involve all cadres of, and beneficiaries from, this system, and strengthen the hands of those with ethical values and concern for the under-privileged. The journal is owned and published by the Forum for Medical Ethics Society, a not-for-profit, voluntary organisation. The FMES was born out of an effort by a group of concerned doctors to focus attention on the need for ethical norms and practices in health care.
