Research Center for Ethics and Medical History, Tehran University of Medical Sciences<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chairholder:<\/strong> Dr. Bagher Larijani<\/p>\n<p>The UNESCO Chair in Bioethics Studies is the first UNESCO Chair in the field of bioethics in the Middle East. Since 2020, the host institution, the Research Center for Ethics and Medical History at Tehran University of Medical Sciences, has been recognized as a World Health Organization Collaborating Centre for Bioethics Studies. The establishment of this Chair can therefore serve as a meeting point for international activities in medical ethics across the Eastern Mediterranean under UNESCO and the World Health Organization.<\/p>\n<p>Given the Research Center for Ethics and Medical History\u2019s track record in national and international activities, the Chair can play a significant role in advancing bioethics and keeping knowledge in this field up to date by establishing a network of scholars in medical ethics and bioethics, facilitating the exchange and sharing of knowledge among them, and taking cultural and religious perspectives into account.<\/p>\n<p>In this regard, the objectives of the Chair are outlined as follows:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Short-Term Objectives:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Integrating bioethics principles into biomedical research activities.<\/li>\n<li>Facilitating dialogue between researchers and policymakers.<\/li>\n<li>Improving existing policies in research, education and healthcare delivery based on bioethics principles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Long-Term Objectives:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Advancing bioethics research to improve health, promote gender equality and empower women in society.<\/li>\n<li>Developing ethics education programs to improve the quality of education in this field.<\/li>\n<li>Building capacity to translate bioethics knowledge into practice.<\/li>\n<li>Training specialized human resources in bioethics education.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Specific Objectives:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Reviewing and revising existing medical ethics curricula.<\/li>\n<li>Designing and developing short-term training courses.<\/li>\n<li>Sharing knowledge and research findings in bioethics at the national, regional and international levels through conferences, workshops and other activities.<\/li>\n<li>Developing and facilitating a network of bioethics educators to foster a better understanding of intercultural differences.<\/li>\n<li>Working closely with UNESCO on related programs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Activities:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Organizing joint postgraduate educational programs.<\/li>\n<li>Organizing short-term training courses, such as the introductory Ethics Teachers Training Course (ETTC), in collaboration with UNESCO.<\/li>\n<li>Collaborating with other UNESCO Chairs, particularly those specializing in bioethics in the region and worldwide.<\/li>\n<li>Organizing joint conferences with UNESCO.<\/li>\n<li>Inviting UNESCO-affiliated professors and bioethics specialists.<\/li>\n<li>Securing research funding in the field of bioethics.<\/li>\n<li>Developing the institution in line with UNESCO\u2019s priorities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Address:<\/strong> Research Center for Ethics and Medical History, No. 23, Corner of

Institution:<\/strong> Institute of Earth Sciences, Geological Survey and Mineral Exploration of Iran<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chairholder:<\/strong> Dr. Hamid Nazari<\/p>\n<p>The UNESCO Chair on Coastal Geological Hazards, the first UNESCO Chair in the field of Earth sciences in Iran, can serve as a tool for capacity-building within educational and research networks through knowledge exchange and sharing, supported by international structural frameworks. Accordingly, in line with UNESCO\u2019s strategy, the Chair\u2019s overarching strategy is to develop scientific structures and promote international cooperation among countries and between more and less advantaged partners.<\/p>\n<p>The major achievement of securing the UNESCO Chair on Coastal Geological Hazards, considering the international and structural capacities of UNESCO Chairs and twinned universities in infrastructure reconstruction, development, innovation and modernization, can mark a turning point in scientific guidance and regional and international networking. Its aim is to facilitate knowledge and infrastructure sharing, knowledge and technology transfer, and the adaptation of these to local contexts.<\/p>\n<p>To achieve this goal, the Chair on Coastal Geological Hazards will initially draw on the collective expertise of scientists from Australia, Japan, China, Russia, Armenia, Germany, Switzerland, France and Iran through the establishment of a network of Earth science researchers within the framework of the Chair\u2019s Scientific Steering Committee.<\/p>\n<p>In view of the Chair\u2019s objectives and its supporting project, several questions arise:<\/p>\n<p><strong>From an academic perspective:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To understand the collision orogenic system, it is necessary to go beyond identifying faults and deformation processes and integrate historical data with geoarchaeological evidence to address questions at the crustal scale.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From a social perspective, the following questions need to be addressed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What are the magnitude, location and timing of earthquakes? How might they be linked to known active faults at a broader regional and transboundary scale?<\/li>\n<li>Are there seismic ruptures along the coastal zone that may correspond to historical earthquakes whose locations have not yet been identified?<\/li>\n<li>What is the likelihood of a tsunami occurring?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Email:<\/strong> <a
