New member of the URPP H2R
Welcome Lynn Kohli, who joined the URPP Human Reproduction Reloaded | H2R as a PhD Candidate in SP 3 Ethnography of Human Reproduction and Single Case Studies in Threshold Areas.
Lynn’s research explores the declining fertility rates in Singapore, with a particular focus on the evolving attitudes of Generation Z toward family planning. Centering on their motivations and the reasons behind voluntary childlessness, the study adopts an ethnographic and holistic approach to investigate how sociopolitical, social, and religious conditions intersect to shape Gen Z’s shifting perceptions of gender roles, family, and kinship — and how these factors influence decisions to remain child-free or to engage in alternative forms of kin-making.
