The Federation of Catholic Family Associations in Europe (FAFCE) welcomes the vote held yesterday, 16 October, in the Italian Senate, which approved the law prohibiting surrogacy even for Italians who request it abroad. It is a law “in favour of human dignity for both the mother and the child”, the Federation said in a statement. According to FAFCE President Vincenzo Bassi, the law “rightly recognises surrogacy as a form of trafficking in human beings”, a definition given by the European Parliament in October 2023 to the practice of renting wombs. The new Italian law “is an extremely significant step towards the goal of the universal abolition of surrogacy”, said Mr Bassi, urging everyone to “continue building a global consensus against the commodification of women and children”. The President also expressed the hope that the Italian example “may lead to an appeal throughout the world to say ‘no’ to rented wombs. We must continue to find common ground to promote the family as a gift, not as a commodity”.
