C I M E – C I M E brings people from different traditions to think creatively and critically, challenging one another and learning from one another, broadening our collective horizons in relation to the most pressing questions of our time: from bioengineering to genetic engineering, from artificial intelligence to transhumanism, from climate change to animal ethics, from sexual ethics to sex trafficking, from racial justice to global poverty. The concerns are multifarious, and the challenges are inter-tangled, with far-reaching consequences. Questions around bioengineering and genetic engineering, as well as transhumanism and artificial intelligence, raise central concerns about what it means to be “human.” Questions around earth ethics and animal ethics raise concerns about how human beings are meant to meaningfully engage with the earth around us and in us all. Concerns around sex trafficking and racial justice and global poverty raise the central question of universal human dignity.
