 -American Human Rights System\, individuals have a right to access reprodu
 ctive technologies. This is so in virtue of the 2012 Inter-American Court 
 of Human Rights landmark reproductive rights decision in Artavia Murillo v
 . Costa Rica where the Court held that a complete ban on reproductive tech
 nologies and assisted reproductive technologies\, in particular\, interfer
 es with the right to a private and family life\, which comprises the decis
 ion to become a parent\, as well the option and access to the means to mat
 erialize that private decision. The Court also held that banning access to
  ARTs discriminates against infertile couples who cannot afford to travel 
 abroad to get treatment. In spite of the Artavia Murillo ruling\, the lega
 l status of surrogacy agreements in State Parties to the Convention is unc
 ertain.\n\nIn this presentation\, I will examine whether surrogacy is comp
 atible with the Inter-American System of Human Rights. The core question i
 s whether a complete ban on commercial or altruistic surrogacy is compatib
 le with the American Convention on Human Rights. I will examine this issue
  through a close exploration of the comparative case law and regulatory fr
 ameworks in this matter.\n\nLe conférencier:\n\n[En anglais seulement] Mar
