15-01-08... Making Babies: Donor Generation, 7:30pm
While the use of donors is becoming more common, for a generation of donor conceived children they may never unlock the truth about their donor's identity. For the most part donor conception has been practiced in a legal vacuum and the rights of the donor's anonymity eclipses the rights of the child. Australia is leading the world in its approach to donor conception but there is still a legislative mountain to climb before all states follow a unified set of guidelines. Donor Generation explores the complex legal terrain surrounding donation and the issues faced by families wanting to meet their donor and adults in search of their donor siblings.
