Transnational Reproduction: The Bioethics of Crossing Borders for Fertility Services
Assisted reproductive and genetic technologies offer people all over the world the opportunity to have children. Variations in legislation across countries, however, have led to the rise of transnational reproduction (also known as "reproductive tourism"), in which people cross international borders to access reproductive technologies such as IVF, surrogacy, egg donation, and pre-implantation genetic diagnosis. This talk will examine the bioethical and social justice concerns at the heart of debates concerning transnational reproduction.
