The Johns Hopkins-Fogarty African Bioethics Training Program (FABTP) is a capacity development partnership in research ethics for institutions within Africa.  The FABTP is funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Fogarty International Center (FIC), and is directed by Drs. Nancy Kass and Adnan Hyder  faculty of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics.


The FABTP selects one eligible African institution per year for a funded collaborative partnership in international research ethics.  The goal of the training partnership is to enhance research ethics capacity within the selected African institution.  Training will occur over a 12-month period with continued guidance and opportunities for collaboration thereafter. The program will support the capacity development of one African institution per year.  Applicant institutions must meet institutional eligibility requirements.
