Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society webinar

Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society webinar

This morning at 7am Brisbane time (5pm yesterday Toronto time) I had the privilege of speaking in a webinar to the Canadian equivalent to the Fertility Society of Australia- the Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society- about Australian fertility and surrogacy law.

Thank you to Sara Cohen for organising, and to Cindy Wasser for asking a couple of curly questions!

Surrogacy in Cyprus: Understanding the North vs South Divide

Surrogacy in Cyprus sounds, at first glance, like it might offer a Mediterranean alternative for intended parents looking overseas. In reality, Cyprus is not one surrogacy destination but two very different legal and political environments sitting on the same island. That divide matters enormously. For Australians in particular, surrogacy in Cyprus raises serious practical, legal… Read More »Surrogacy in Cyprus: Understanding the North vs South Divide
