Berry Published online: 22 March 2011 © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2011 Abstract This essay discusses four challenges posed to a global bioethics by articles on: divergent national policies on compensation of egg donors for IVF, efforts to advance the development of international guidelines for the management of neonates on the edge of viability, bioethics training workshops in Uganda, a bioethicist's reflection on a visit to Pakistan. The article then discusses several approaches to developing a global bioethics and how these approaches might meet the four challenges. The essay concludes with discussion of the author's develop- ment of a navigational approach to policymaking for fractious bioethical policy problems and how this compares to other approaches to developing a global bioethics.
