Abstract:
The changing demographic picture in Europe due to the significant migration in recent years puts even more acutely the need for sensitivity to differences in the "Doctor-Patient" relationship. Recognizing and respecting different values is important part of health professionals’ ethical education. This article examines two main approaches- ‘principlist’ approach and casuistry approach applied in the training of students from the Faculty of Public Health of Medical University - Sofia.
Keywords: medical ethics, multicultural context, local moral worlds, cultural “humility”
