Cam Queer History is a group of undergrads, grads, and staff at the University of Cambridge who have invited ARU students to a series of events. Check out their full schedule here.

Queer Parenthood

This panel will consider queer parenthood, exploring how the experiences and situation of queer parents differs across countries and contexts, as well as some of the history of queer of parenthood. We are lucky to welcome four panellists to this event: Dr Marcin Smietana, Dr Linda Layne, Susie Bower-Brown, and Dr Robert Pralat.

About the speakers:
Dr Marcin Smietana is a research associate at ReproSoc (Reproductive Sociology Research Group) in Cambridge. His research has involved working on adoptive and surrogacy gay fathers in Spain, on American and European gay men doing surrogacy in the US, and is now starting fieldwork with British gay men doing altruistic surrogacy in the UK.
