Resource Pack: Ethics, Human Rights, Pandemics

2020

This curated resource collection includes reports, articles and guidelines that consider both ethics and human rights, as they relate to public health practice and clinical research in the setting of national and international emergencies, particularly epidemics and pandemics.

In addition to ethical frameworks developed specifically for pandemic preparedness, the collection also includes insights from prior guidelines focusing on research, compassionate use therapeutics and vaccine trials for Ebola. Others resources outline how to conduct research effectively and ethically in the context of global emergencies. 

Browse through these documents to create your own collection. Educators may find this curated collection useful for generating evidence-based discussion and debate using the contemporary context of COVID-19. 

These resources on ethics, human rights and pandemics is part of a COVID-19 Teaching Toolkit under development by the Global Health Education and Learning Incubator at Harvard University. New resources will be added as they become available.

The Global Health Education and Learning Incubator at Harvard University supports interdisciplinary education about world health through the production, curation, and dissemination of educational public goods.
