Notes from the field--an adventure in multiculturalism

M.C. Sullivan was formerly the Executive Vice President of Midwest Bioethics Center. During her tenure at MBC, she was awarded a Kornfeld Foundation fellowship to pursue fieldwork in multicultural healthcare ethics. This article reports on her project, which involved travel in Europe, Asia, Central and North America, and the Caribbean, to experience indigenous culture, and to learn, in the United States, from established agencies serving immigrant populations. The research was not conducted scientifically. The methods and findings are anecdotal and attributable only to the author.
