International Bioethics Exchange Program Participants

International Bioethics Exchange Program (IBEP) promotes research and education in bioethics in the developing world by donating the Bibliography of Bioethics, the NBAC archive (on CD-ROM), and other materials to libraries willing to establish bioethics collections.
You can help establish a collection abroad by supporting the shipping of materials to a needy library; please see the IBEP Invitation Letter for instructions on making a donation.
