We are excited to share that “Rejection of Prenatal Personhood,” the fifth report in our Beyond Borders Global Legal Comparison series with the O'Neill Institute, has officially launched!
The “prenatal personhood” movement conflates the value and legal status of prenatal life and seeks to extend legal rights or full personhood before birth. This report — through case analysis, commentary, and comparative tables — analyzes how decision makers in various countries have pushed back against the concept of prenatal personhood, and situates the United States in conversation with legal and policy trends around the world.
