A&S 302 Reproductive Justice

Reproductive justice is defined as “the human right to maintain personal bodily autonomy, have children or not have children, and parent our children in safe and sustainable communities.” Building on feminist intersectional theories and drawing from multiple social science disciplines, this course considers various social actors’ experiences of pregnancy and giving birth, their rights to give birth or terminate pregnancy and obtain reproductive services, and their struggles to maintain a viable environment for human reproduction.
