Dan Patrone presented a paper entitled:Prudence,
Protection, and Crisis: The Precautionary Principle in an Increasingly
Hungry World at the Appignani
Bioethics Center in New York this past weekend.
The Appignani Bioethics Center in collaboration with the University of
Montreal, Canada is organized a conference entitled: Food, Famine and Future
Technologies: Ethical Dilemmas in a Hungry World from May 22 to May 23, 2009 under the auspices of
the United Nations Headquarters in NYC. The conference provided an
international forum for the exchange of ideas, experiences and views regarding
the priority needs and possible strategic means of enhancing the capacities of
developing countries and countries with transitional economies to assess risk
and monitor genetic modified organisms (GMOs). The conference goal was to
identify and suggest a number of concrete steps to alleviate world hunger.
