Description

About the Congress

Reproductive tourism is a relatively new phenomenon that occurs when aspiring parents travel from their home country in which advanced reproductive technologies (ART) are expensive and legally awkward to nations where the procedures are cheaper and legally more obtainable. 

The aim of this conference will be to discuss the reasons behind the rapid increase in reproductive tourism, as well as outline its professional, ethical, legal and economic consequences.  This will be discussed by experts who will address the current concerns raised by this new trend, as well as share their accumulating experience meeting with the needs of the international patient and the limitations set by mounting national regulatory restrictions.

 
Topics
• How can we improve access to advanced reproductive care to all nations?
• Mapping the global needs for reproductive care
• Identifying barriers for cross-border reproductive needs
• ART regulation under international consensus
• Cross border gestational surrogacy: providing opportunity or exploitation of the poor.
• Cost versus quality assurance in global ART.
• Worldwide gamete donation: fulfilling an undeniable need or a form of organ trafficking?
• Safety protocols for the preparation of oocyte donors
