Details
This panel explores diverse religious perspectives on reproduction and reproductive health. While reproduction has become the ground for partisan political battles, this panel of faculty experts from CWRU’s Department of Religious Studies, examines the much broader terrain of religious beliefs and practices surrounding reproduction, including sexuality, the body, ethical obligations, and the divine. Panelists will also challenge the presumed secular/religious divide around reproduction, demonstrating the varied stances that religious people take and how those positions relate to their cultural contexts.
Light refreshments will be provided at all events!
