Dear All,

The dates for the sixth ordinary session of the World Commission of
the Ethics of Science and Technology (COMEST) have been set to be
16-18 June, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. There will also be a satellite
on 15 June. COMEST will be finalizing a report on ethics of climate
change, and several of the regional EETAP reports that are ready
(having completed review stages) will also be tabled there. The COMEST
report will go to the General Conference of UNESCO.

The WG reports will also be important documents, and these will
hopefully come at the critical time as UN documents in the
preparations for the Climate change convention to be discussed this
year.

There will be some space for open contributions, on ethics of climate
change, energy ethics, science ethics, nanotechnology ethics,
establishing national infrastructure for ethical science policy and
several other topics. Please send 250 word abstracts by 10 April to me
for consideration.

There will be no registration fee to the conference.

With best wishes

Darryl
