Following the 8th Global Summit of National Bioethics Advisory Bodies, The
Ethics and Health Team at WHO that provides the permanent secretariat for the
Global Summit started developing a database containing Opinions submitted by
National Ethics Committees (ONEC). The ONEC database is hosted in WHO and
is accessible through a public website. This website will have several
functions:
Online database of National Ethics Committees (NEC): This is an online
searchable database of National Ethics Committees updated by the
Secretariat using an online submission system which is accessible to the
National Ethics Committees.
Online submission/collection of opinions by National Ethics Committees : This is
a system that allows a secure online submission of opinions by National
Ethics Committees. The files are uploaded online and a form is filled
containing information like title, publication year, country and some keywords.
Searching online for opinions collected: This is a page that allows
searching using different keywords from the title or the abstract of the
opinions.
NEC's who wish to update their information can do so by clicking on the Email
link in the bottom of the page. |
