E-mail: christiana.peppard@yale.edu
Christiana Z. Peppard graduated with a Master's degree in Ethics from Yale Divinity School and a BA in Human Biology from Stanford University. Her areas of specialization include biomedical ethics at the edges of life; Catholic moral theology and social thought; poetry as an ethical methodology; and the ethics of fresh water use and abuse. Her dissertation explores moral aspects of fresh water (focusing on scarcity, provision, commodification, and control), and identifies elements for a global fresh water ethic from Christian religious resources, especially Catholic social thought. She is co-editor of the book Expanding Horizons in Bioethics (Springer, 2005).
