Friday, October 11, 2013 | 8:00 AM EDT - 5:45 PM EDT
Registration for this program is now closed. Please see the full listing for upcoming IPE programs.
In recognition of the 40th Anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade, this conference will bring together scholars, activists, and practitioners to discuss key issues related to reproductive justice and reproductive oppression, looking beyond Roe and the abortion issue. Experts will explore what can be learned from previous strategic litigation decisions and the development in the law of reproductive justice, how those lessons effect future advocacy for reproductive justice, both domestically and internationally. Among the issues to be discussed will be the regulation of reproductive justice through statutes, the Constitution, and common law, and how structural inequality and intersectional issues relate to race, economic fragility, immigration status, sexual orientation, and criminal convictions.
Panels include:
• Roe at 40: From Rights to Justice
• Faith and Reproductive Justice
• Beyond Whether to Bear ad Begat
• Marginalized Populations and Marginalized Rights
• Reproductive Justice in the International Context
• Fighting for Access
• Making Procreative Decisions in the Face of Shaming and Stigma
• Assisted Reproduction and Women’s Equality
• Justice in Parenting
