V originále
The goal of this 60-minute long session was to present and popularize the Master’s thesis Towards a Sustainable Humanity throughout the global gynecological community. In the first part, the chair of the session, Jan Greguš, illustrated the discord between sustainability as an ideal (a concept) and unsustainability as a fact. He discussed the problems humanity was causing both to the natural world and itself and argued for addressing population to get humanity to the long-term sustainable numbers. He presented different solutions and favored the full availability of family planning methods and services, education, and empowerment of girls and women. Further, he introduced environmental and reproductive ethics and supported embracing smaller families as a global norm. In the second part, speaker John Guillebaud, Professor of Family Planning and Reproductive Health, talked more in-depth about family planning methods and services and their absolute need for combating overpopulation and bringing humanity to sustainable numbers. The third speaker, Florence Blondel, a Ugandan journalist, delivered to the audience the message from the Global South that there is nothing racist or xenophobic about discussing and dealing with overpopulation because it is just people living in the poorer settings of the Global South who suffer most from the consequences of overpopulation. She also underlined that the availability of contraception and education, and empowerment is what girls and women in the Global South need most.
