  1. Concept Note:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It is a natural human desire to have one\u2019s own progeny and thereby concept of marriage, reproduction took birth in the society. Different religions have different notions of marriage in their personal laws. For some religions the base of marriage is spirituality and for some the objective of marriage is to reproduce. Indirectly or directly the objective of all religions is to have child who will be supporting the couple in their old age.<\/p>\n

    However, in the modern times and competitive era the married couples find it difficult to have their own babies either because of biological reasons or socio-economic reasons. Therefore, in order to fulfil this desire of infertile couples some religions keeping in view spiritual obligations have adopted notion of adoption. However, this frustrates their basic urge of having their own progeny and thereby it makes them difficult to fulfil their religious aspirations and personal desires.<\/p>\n

    To fulfil this desire, in this modern world, medical science has now developed to the extent of making available some mechanisms like IVF, Test tube baby, surrogacy etc thereby making it possible for such couples to fulfil their desire of having their own progeny. Such medical advancements have become more popular in the competitive era where the focus of people have been more on employment and personal autonomy and thereby making it easy for them to have work life balance. Statistics shows that 25,000 children in India were born out of surrogacy as it has gained popularity and India being a developing country with less GDP it has become easy target for surrogacy.<\/p>\n

    Surrogacy conceptually and practically has several dimensions and it involves interplay of all disciplines such as law\/medicine\/taxation\/commerce\/morality\/religion\/human rights\/social connotation\/economic implications\/human trafficking etc. To address all this disciplines and thereby to explore the concept of surrogacy it is required for the academicians and stake holders and industry people to come together, to form a forum and to discuss the concept of in the interest of justice. \u00a0Furthermore, India is heading towards its own surrogacy bill and academic discourse of such nature is required to be there to exchange the ideas and inputs.<\/p>\n

    Therefore, we at MNLUA are privileged to organize 2-day virtual Multi-disciplinary Seminar on Surrogacy to revisit the concept of Surrogacy, shed light on economic, social, religious, legal and psychological aspects of surrogacy.<\/p>\n
