</h4>
<div class="e2ma-p-div" style="font-size: 14px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); margin-bottom: 10px; line-height: 1.5;">
In this presentation I explore uterine transplantation as an emerging mode of reproduction, which privileges the experience of pregnancy in addition to genetic relatedness. I will be focusing on the socio-cultural and economic discourses surrounding the marketisation
of reproductive technologies in India and how these recalibrate social and familial dynamics concerning reproduction. I argue that the mobilisation of the language of reproduction as a right could potentially transform into reproduction as a duty. Reproductive
biopolitics is used as a lens to think through the value of wombs in relation to the bodies they inhabit, and the pressures the marketisation of wombs puts on both recipients and donors.<br>
