Recent Publications

 

​Volume 3, Issue 1 of the African Journal of Bioethics brings together nine peer-reviewed articles spanning research ethics, public health ethics, clinical practice, children's rights, and the development of bioethical frameworks grounded in African contexts. The issue draws on scholarship from Nigeria, Tanzania, Uganda, Ghana, Kenya, The Gambia, and beyond, reflecting a field working across multiple ethical terrains rather than a single thematic line.
