Abstract:
This perspective addresses the question of reproductive governance and public health in India by drawing on experiences as a civil society organization in the field. We attempt to highlight some key issues that have emerged on this question in relation to reproductive rights, sickle cell disease management, and the ethical implications of technological advances, from the location of the Global South. In the discourse on cosmopolitan ethics, the emphasis should be on equity and social justice for marginalized people through a system that respects cultural diversity, combats systemic biases, and ensures patients' autonomy. We underscore the importance of multiple moral intuitions and notions of plurality as central to achieving health justice.
