Published in 1998, this book is a collected volume of papers from the first conference of the European Network for Biomedical ethics. The main subject of this conference is the ethical assessment of IVF in view of its concrete application as an infertility treatment and the consideration of possible alternatives for use. Twenty years after the introduction and the establishment of this therapy a more concrete evaluation of its medical indications, social conditions and consequences, the psychological consequences for the women involved and the parent-child relationship becomes possible. The legal and ethical evaluation of the reproduction technology as regards for example the legal and moral status of supernumery embyos in cryo-conservation has also to be considered in a European perspective. The ethical evaluation concentrates today on the new evolution that IVF technology takes in relation to the extension of diagnostics possibilities due to genetic research. Little work has been done on the connection between IVF and genetic diagnostics and therapy, so the medical and ethical evaluation of the connecting lines are also included in the book.
Dans l’esprit et la lettre des Objectifs de développement durable adoptés en 2015, nous devons mettre en oeuvre de nouvelles méthodes et suivre de nouvelles trajectoires afin de transcrire dans les faits une triple avancée économique, sociale et environnementale. C’est dans cette logique que l’Institut de la Francophonie pour le développement durable a décidé de remettre en perspective l’évaluation environnementale et sociale, avec l’implication de 25 États et gouvernements membres volontaires, que nous remercions pour leur engagement. Cet exercice d’introspection jette un regard lucide sur les dispositifs institutionnels, les pratiques et les avancées, mais il se projette aussi et surtout sur les défis majeurs pour renouveler l’évaluation environnementale et sociale et la rendre encore plus performante.
