Funded Activity Summary

The socio-legal implications of donor linking. This project aims to understand the impact of donor linking on individual and familial identities and relationships, and the consequences of the growing prevalence of non-statutory linking, such as direct-to-consumer genetic testing and online technologies, for formal regulatory frameworks. Donor linking is the process by which donor-conceived people, donors, and recipient parents access each other's identifying information. Australia is a world leader in statutory linking, but reform has not been matched by equivalent levels of research on the consequences of the practice. This project will constitute an evidence-based platform from which donor-linking law, policy and services can develop domestically and overseas.
