The Centre of Biomedical Ethics & Culture (CBEC) has produced “Local Moral Worlds”, an anthology of short films depicting bioethical cases through dramatic representations. These films address issues from a different perspective that incorporates Pakistan’s cultural context, religious beliefs, and the unique challenges of resource-limited settings in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).

The series features twelve educational short films that explore a range of bioethical issues, providing nuanced perspectives that reflect the social realities of LMICs, with a particular focus on Pakistan. Focusing on urgent bioethical issues that directly affect millions of people living in LMICs, these films examine topics such as public health, clinical interactions, medical errors, and more.
