Melbourne surrogacy seminar tonight, Sydney Saturday

Wednesday, December 17, 2014
I address the seminar in Brisbane

It is always a joyous time to see friends from overseas, especially when we are all engaged in speaking together! I was lucky that on Monday night I was able to speak in Brisbane at the surrogacy seminar, along with my friends psychologist Dr Kim Bergman and fertility specialist Dr Said Daneshmand, each of whom travelled from the US to speak.

Dr Kim Bergman with a passionate talk about surrogacy.

Dr Said Daneshmand talked without jargon about the intricacies of IVF and donors.

The seminar in Brisbane went swimmingly, with loads of information given minus the jargon.

Tonight there will be a further surrogacy seminar with Kim and Said in Melbourne, and again in Sydney on Saturday afternoon (though Said will be attending by Skype, due to the demands of his practice, he has to return home).

That diversity creates a legal and human-rights problem: how can the parentage and identity of these children be protected consistently and quickly across borders?… Read More »Can Children Born Through Surrogacy Have Secure Parentage Worldwide?

Human Rights Act Australia: Why IVF & Surrogacy Need Statutory Protection

Why Australia Needs a Human Rights Act

Australia prides itself on fairness and the rule of law, yet it remains the only western common law country without a national Human Rights Act or bill of rights. That absence is not merely theoretical. It has practical, often profound consequences for people navigating assisted reproductive treatment, IVF and surrogacy. The legal gap and why… Read More »Why Australia Needs a Human Rights Act
