>2nd CALL FOR PAPERS:
>
>CONFERENCE: <http://www.healthpromotionethics.eu/>SETTING AN ETHICAL 
>AGENDA FOR HEALTH PROMOTION
>18-20 September 2007, Ghent, Belgium
>
>The promotion of health, both as a methodology and as a policy, has 
>always been partly an ethical project. The past few decades the 
>policy makers' attention has not only been attracted by data 
>regarding morbidity and mortality, but just as much by health 
>inequalities. Therefore, reducing health disparities and assuring 
>people the right to the highest attainable standard of health is 
>nowadays considered as an absolute priority by local, national and 
>supranational institutions.
>Despite these ethical motivations the domain of health promotion 
>practice is littered with ethical pitfalls: victim blaming, 
>paternalism, healthism, imposing a conception of 'the good life', 
>coercion, the use of marketing strategies, lack of consent, etc.
>This conference intends to bring together scholars from both the 
>fields of ethics and health promotion in order to identify and to 
>examine the ethical issues that are at stake within the context of 
>health promotion.
>
>Confirmed keynotes: Norman Daniels (Harvard), David McQueen (CDC & 
>IUPHE), Nancy Kass (Johns Hopkins), Angus Dawson (Keele), Marcel 
>Verweij (Utrecht), Maurice Mittelmark (Bergen), Ronald Bayer 
>(Columbia).
>
>Deadline for abstract submission: March 1, 2007
