Anonymous Gamete Donation: a Case for Balancing Under Article 8 ECHR
1Faculty of Law, Masaryk University 112471 Veveří 158, Brno 611 80 Czech Republic.
Abstract:
Anonymous gamete donation creates a specific conflict between human rights and public interests under Article 8 of the ECHR. This was first assessed in the ECtHR's landmark decision in Gauvin-Fournis and Silliau v. France of 7 September 2023. This article critically analyses this judgment, taking into account the European legal framework for anonymous gamete donation, the recommendations of the competent authorities and the previous case law of the ECtHR on the right to know one's biological origin as an integral part of one's identity that is protected under the right to private and family life.
