This is a multi-sited project that looks at families in Canada, Spain, Denmark, and Israel who have used ARTs (like donor sperm or eggs, embryos, or surrogacy).

What’s involved:

• A relaxed, informal interview (60-90 minutes) and creative activities for kids (e.g. drawings, life story photobook).
• A chance to reflect on your family’s or professional journey.
• Follow-up interview for adult participants (optional)

Who can participate:

• Parent or guardian in a family that used fertility treatments using donor gametes.
• Have a child who, if aged 7+, has been told about their conception and is willing to speak with us, after your consent (but families/parents with younger children are welcome).
• Healthcare provider who supports people with fertility care in Alberta, British Colombia, or Ontario.
• Work or volunteer with an organization that supports people using fertility treatments.
• Live or have used ARTs in Alberta, British Columbia, or Ontario.
