The Reproductive Futures Lab (RFL) is an interdisciplinary, international research initiative exploring the biocultural dimensions of reproductive justice, health, and possibility. Here, scholars, medical practitioners, scientists, activists, and policymakers come together to engage with diverse conversations on reproductive pasts, presents, and futures. We believe reproductive futures will be as varied as their pasts—and RFL is committed to attending to those trajectories with a justice-based lens.

We produce original, theoretically informed, and empirically rich research and policy recommendations exploring key reproductive processes:

- Demographic shifts

- Pregnancy & childbirth

- Menstruation & menopause

- Fertility & Assistive Reproductive Technologies (ARTs)

- Non-normative reproduction

- Childfree Futures and Cultural Shifts

- Social Reproduction w/out Biological Reproduction

- Hormonal interventions

- AI in reproductive health

We focus especially on the Asia-Pacific region and are committed to intersectional, inclusive approaches.

Launching in 2025, RFL aims to generate high-impact, policy-relevant scholarship that bridges academic insight and real-world change. We translate research into:

- Evidence-based insights for clinical practice, academic research, & health policy

- Contributions to public discourse on reproductive issues

- Engagement with advocacy groups, health activists, media platforms, and communities

Our annual trans \disciplinary seminars in Aotearoa New Zealand and Singapore will serve as the backbone of our collaborative efforts, nurturing dialogue and shared innovation.
