2nd CALL FOR PAPERS:



CONFERENCE: SETTING AN ETHICAL AGENDA FOR  HEALTH PROMOTION
< http://www.healthpromotionethics.eu/>


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
