Zelf adopteren

Het bestuur van stichting TLC krijgt veel vragen over adoptie in het algemeen, zelfdoen in adoptie(deelbemiddeling) en specifiek adoptie vanuit TLC.

Adoptie algemeen Zuid-Afrika heeft een aantal jaren geleden de Haagse Conferentie (Haags kinderbeschermingsverdrag) ondertekend. Hierdoor is het niet meer mogelijk rechtstreeks een kindje te adopteren vanuit TLC. Dit gaat nu via de zgn. Centrale Autoriteit.

Deelbemiddeling

Voor informatie over zelfdoen in adoptie verwijzen wij u graag door naar de website van de Belangen vereniging Zelfdoen in Adoptie (BZA) waar een uitgebreide pagina met uitleg over adoptie is gemaakt.

Een baby met HIV roept bij veel mensen een angstbeeld op. Maar is dat terecht?

Huiverig

Adoptieorganisaties staan huiverig tegenover de adoptie van kinderen met HIV. Dat terwijl weeshuizen in Zuid-Afrika, Haïti en in Oost-Europa vol zitten met seropositieve kinderen. En door de juiste medicatie is inmiddels goed te leven met HIV, en ga je er niet meer aan dood.

We are also privileged to be able to offer South African adopters the option of adopting internationally, from Eastern Europe, as we have established ties with an international child placement agency. Recent changes to South African law now make it possible for foreigners to adopt South African children.

INHOFE, NICKLES ANNOUNCE CAMBODIAN ADOPTIONS CAN PROCEED

Those Seeking Adoptions Can Complete Process

Wednesday, September 11, 2002

WASHINGTON—U.S. Sens. Jim Inhofe (R-Tulsa) and Don Nickles (R-Ponca City) announced today that the Immigration and Naturalization Service will allow American families who were in the process of adopting Cambodian children to move forward with their adoption requests. Many families were in the process of adopting children from Cambodia last year when an INS suspension on adoptions from that country interrupted the process.

“This is the right decision for these families who have been left in limbo for these last nine months,” Nickles said. “I am particularly delighted that this decision will now allow the Rudolph family from Oklahoma to proceed with their adoption. I wish them all the best in this endeavor and commend them and all adoptive families for their willingness to open their homes and hearts to children from around the world who have no family to call their own.”

Adoption agency approved in principle

CAROL COULTER Legal Affairs Editor

THE ADOPTION Board has approved in principle the setting up of a mediation agency to facilitate intercountry adoptions. It is being set up in anticipation of Ireland ratifying the Hague Convention on Intercountry Adoptions, due in the Dáil this session, which requires such agencies.

Up to now, the only Irish mediation agency was the Cork-based Helping Hands Adoption Agency, which facilitated adoptions from Vietnam. Its mediation licence was revoked by the Vietnamese government in June, following the lapsing of a bilateral agreement on adoption between the countries.

Helping Hands received €1.6 million in HSE and lottery funding from its setting up in 2006, and employs four staff in Ireland and four in Vietnam. The new mediation agency, provisionally called Leanbh, is being set up by a number of leading members of the International Adoption Association. Its constitution and means of operating are set within the framework of the Hague Convention. Following its ratification, only other countries that have ratified it may send children to Ireland for intercountry adoption.
