Autonomy, Suffering and Human Dignity: Theological and Medical Responses to Assisted Dying

How can Christians engage in the debate on Assisted Dying? How should we respond to questions of suffering, dignity, autonomy and the end of life?

In this public lecture, Professor John Wyatt - a respected Christian voice in medical ethics - draws on his clinical experience, medical expertise, and theological insight to explore these profound issues. He will examine the meaning of human life, the role of autonomy, the ethical and spiritual dimensions of suffering, and the complex moral challenges faced by patients, families, and healthcare professionals in end-of-life decisions.

The lecture will be followed by an interactive Q&A session, inviting academics, students, clinicians, church leaders, and members of the public to engage with these urgent ethical and theological questions.
