Eiji Uehiro (6 June 1937 – 11 January 2019) was a Japanese ethicist and writer who established the Uehiro Foundation on Ethics and Education in 1987, which later became a partner of the Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs. The foundation was inspired by his father, Tetsuhiko Uehiro, a survivor of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, whose experiences led him to forming a traditional ethics organization in Japan, which Uehiro considered not to have a universal or international enough focus. In 2002, he established the Uehiro Chair in Practical Ethics at the University of Oxford; a year later, this led to the formation of the Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics.
