Agenda

How might culture and religion influence attitudes to infertility and its treatment?
How can we increase awareness of infertility treatments and ensure access to fertility services?

Ths half-day event is an opportunity for members and representatives of South Asian communities, infertility service providers, infertililty support groups and researchers to debate key issues surrounding infertility treatments.

Infertility clinicians  will present information on the techniques available to help people with fertility problems. Researchers from De Montfort University, who have organised the event,  will present findings from a research project which explores attitudes to reproductive technologies including IVF and egg/sperm donation within British Asian communities.
