Summary: | The aim of this paper is to demonstrate, through the analysis of UNESCO’s bioethics documents, with special reference to the Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights and the Bioethics Core Curriculum, the spot and role of doctrine of informed consent through its practical application within the systems of biomedicine and health today, as well as through the necessity and importance of international and legal regulations of bioethics. By finding a foothold in the activities of the UNESCO Chair in Bioethics, whose prevailing topic of educational activities is the topic of informed consent, the presence of multidimensional framework of approaches to resolve issues burdened by moral values present within the health care system is recognized.
