We warmly invite you to the second meeting of the second season of the “Philosophical Survival School” – “Bioethics and the dignity of human remains. The problem of body farms, exhumation and vivisection”, where we will take on extremely difficult but important questions about bioethics, the dignity of the dead and the limits of interfering with the body after death. Topics such as body farms, exhumation and vivisection challenge our values and ethical standards. What are the limits of research on human remains? When do we cross the line of respect for the dead?
Join us to share your insights and hear different perspectives on these sensitive and controversial topics. It is a great opportunity to reflect together on post-mortem bioethics.

The Philosophical Survival School: about the project
The “Philosophical Survival School” is a series of open discussions, debates and lectures created by the Wrocław Centre for Social Development (WCRS) in cooperation with the Applied Philosophy Student Research Group at the University of Wrocław. The second edition of the series begins on 11 April and will explore questions of ethics, art, anarchism and the environment. It is for everyone who wants to look at the world through the lens of philosophy – an initiative for all those who seek a philosophical sensitivity in getting to know themselves and the world around them, and who want to share their own experience.
