Goals. Our goals are to develop a more inclusive theory of bioethics encompassing the standpoints and experiences of women and other marginalized social groups, to examine presuppositions embedded in the dominant bioethical discourse that privilege those already empowered, and to create new methodologies and strategies responsive to the disparate conditions of women’s lives across the globe.

Short description of the goals:

  • promote scholarly work in feminist bioethics
  • foster international collaborations and facilitate the exchange of information among feminist bioethicists
  • support the work of women in developing countries
  • encourage and facilitate the participation of un- and under-employed people in the activities of the FAB Network (especially the bi-annual meeting)


Projects. Biennial conference, development of country representatives network, publication of feminist bioethics collections, operation of active listserv and maintenance of FAB website. Short description of the main projects:

  • organisation of a bi-annual congress that is recognized as the pre-eminent international feminist bioethics meeting, attracting participants from both developed and developing nations
  • launch of the International Journal on Feminist Approaches to Bioethics (IJFAB) which promotes feminist scholarship (first issue in April 2008)
  • development and maintenance of the country representatives’ group to promote networking and sharing of information and support for this group to present a panel at the biennial congress
  • maintenance of the listserv to encourage communication and sharing of information
  • maintenance of the interactive website which contains full details of the activities of FAB: www.fabnews.org
  • administration of the Audre Lorde Fund that provides support to members with limited travel funds to facilitate their participation in the biennial congress.
