International Surrogacy: a new field of investigation for ISS, August 2013

Given the rapid development of the use of surrogate mothers at the international level, ISS is now investing in this new theme.

By taking an institutional position (downloadable here), the organisation wishes to draw the attention of the public as well as professionals about the risks of this particular mode of reproduction, which currently operates without any regulation. ISS intends to develop advocacy strategies, undertake research and fundraising activities in order that this subject be addressed quickly at the international level.
