Mexico City's Nap-or-Nix Approach to End-of-Life
Experts discuss legalizing euthanasia in Mexico City. The proposed bill aims to help those with irreversible conditions choose medically assisted death. It emphasizes patient autonomy, challenges medical ethics, and sparks debate on dignity in dying.
In recent years, debates surrounding euthanasia and medically assisted death have emerged as some of the most profound ethical dilemmas faced by modern societies. As medical advances continue to extend life expectancy and improve the quality of care, they have also prolonged the suffering of individuals living with incurable diseases or conditions that strip them of their dignity and autonomy.
Mexico is now grappling with these questions as it considers a groundbreaking bill that could legalize euthanasia and medically assisted suicide in Mexico City (CDMX), raising questions about autonomy, ethics, and the future of human dignity.
