Survival of the Fittest?
We invite Central European young leaders to participate in a one-afternoon Conference on Eugenics in Vienna on October 17th, hosted by World Youth Alliance- Europe. Together with politicians, historians and experts on genetics and bioethics, they will discuss the history of eugenics, the re-emergence of social tendencies towards “genetic cleansing” and the threat these tendencies pose to the dignity of the human person. Visit our website for more details. The deadline for registration is October 14th, 2006.
