Georgia's surrogacy industry has experienced significant growth since 2022, leading to clinics recruiting women from across Central Asia through platforms like Instagram and TikTok. New research from the University of Oxford's Centre on Migration, Policy and Society (COMPAS) sheds light on the unseen mechanisms of emotional control operating within this expanding transnational market. The study provides insights into the operational aspects of Georgia's burgeoning childbirth sector.
Georgia's surrogacy sector has seen a substantial increase in activity since 2022. This boom has led to clinics becoming oversubscribed and consequently recruiting women from various parts of Central Asia.
Recruitment efforts for surrogates primarily utilize social media platforms, including Instagram and TikTok.
Research conducted at the University of Oxford's Centre on Migration, Policy and Society (COMPAS) offers new perspectives. The study focuses on understanding the hidden systems of emotional control that are reported to sustain Georgia's international surrogacy market.
According to Phys.org, this research provides unprecedented insight into these operational dynamics.
