This anthropological study aims to investigate the global networks and emerging markets for assisted reproduction in Southern Africa. It will focus upon the mobilities of patients to South Africa for assisted reproduction and mobility of ova providers, gametes, embryos and medical staff across Africa and to and from Australia. This ethnographic study includes an analysis of the development of the industry, surveys of the numbers of international patients travelling to clinics in South Africa and interviews with staff, patients, gamete donors, and facilitating agencies. This study is anticipated to provide theoretical insights on the social impacts of reproductive travel across national borders for improved public policy responses.

这项人类学研究旨在调查南部非洲辅助生殖的全球网络和新兴市场。它将侧重于患者到南非进行辅助生殖的流动性以及卵子提供者、配子、胚胎和医务人员在非洲各地以及往返澳大利亚的流动性。这项人种学研究包括对该行业发展的分析，对前往南非诊所的国际患者数量的调查，以及对工作人员，患者，配子捐赠者和促进机构的采访。这项研究预计将提供跨国界的生殖旅行的社会影响的理论见解，以改善公共政策的反应。
