This project is dedicated to developing novel guidelines to guide neuroscience research efforts on the continent.
As neuroscience advances, it raises ethical questions about how we use new knowledge about the brain, especially in diverse cultural contexts like Africa. This project brings together scientists, traditional healers, and people with brain conditions to create guidelines that respect African cultural values and needs. By using a collaborative approach, known as the Modified Delphi, we will gather input from a variety of experts to ensure the ethical challenges of neuroscience in Africa are addressed. This will help ensure Africa’s unique voice is part of the global conversation on brain research.
