In June we are meeting with the Lumos Foundation (as part of the Global Alliance for Children’s mirror plan for the Action Plan) to discuss Lumos’ new office and presence in Washington. CAPP and Lumos will be working together specifically to advance the Action Plan in Congress and the Obama administration.

Julia Nalle is now fundraising again for Nicole Dewberry, despite the fact that Nicole has sent 4-5 teenage boys that she's professed her undying love to have fled to the hills rather and be adopted by her.

Perhaps the deity they claim wants the Dewberrys to adopt is not so subtly telling them otherwise?

After the Second World War, many “mixed-race children” from Germany were adopted in Denmark.

Sometimes the children had to be hidden under clothes in the back seat so that they would not be discovered by officials at the border between Schleswig-Holstein and Denmark. It was not allowed to bring the children from Germany to Denmark. After the Second World War, thousands of "mixed-race children" were born in Germany. Especially in southern Germany, German women often had children from American, colored occupation soldiers. Unwanted by society, they were deported to care homes. And for decades these German children were then brought to Denmark.

Illegal adoptions into the Kingdom

The Danish woman Tytte Botfeldt was responsible for most of the adoptions. She had good contacts with German care homes and with Danish couples who wanted children. She organized trips from Danes to Germany, during which children were then brought to the kingdom. Many of the children were hidden in their new homes because the adoptions were illegal. After two years, however, the children were considered socialized in Denmark and usually received Danish citizenship. More than two thousand children were adopted in Denmark in this way.

Just after his “historic” victory in the European election, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi scores another major media success.

This morning his key (and most telegenic) Minister, Mrs Maria Elena Boschi, arrived in Italy aboard a State plane carrying 31 Congolese children.

CONGO, THE 31 ADOPTED CHILDREN ARRIVING IN ITALY. MOGHERINI: "HAPPY CONCLUSION OF THE CASE"

"The case seems to have come to a successful conclusion thanks to all the people who have worked with tireless dedication." The Minister of Foreign Affairs Federica Mogherini comments on the last developments in the case of 31 children adopted in Democratic Republic of Congo, But now Italian citizens stranded in Kinshasafor bureaucratic reasons. Already on Monday, Prime Minister Matteo Renzi announced on Twitter to have "just given the green light: a plane part of the Italian Republic for Congo to return adopted children stuck for months# Acasa". On arrival times at the moment there is still no certainty. "When will I know," said Mogherini.

An agreement between the prime minister Matteo Renzi and the Congolese president Joseph Kabilahas helped to unlock a situation that holds the rope for many months 24 families, And within the children can be reunited with their adoptive parents. According to the president of the Commission for International Adoptions (Cai) Silvia Della Monica, The expected arrival Italy of 31 children is a matter of a few days: "We will do as quickly as possible," he assured. Della Monica - magistrate only two months at the head of Cai - Sent a letter to the families and agencies involved, recommending "to act with prudence and discretion, not to take individual initiatives" to link up with the same Cai and follow the instructions of the latter. In particular, believes "most necessary to reiterate how inappropriate and risky at this sensitive time, the departure of adoptive families for the Congo."

If anything, therefore, waiting for the story ends. A story that goes on for months, with 24 couples who despite having completed the adoption process have not yet been able to bring home their children due to the lack of clearance by the Congolese authorities. Last September Kinshasa had decided to suspend for one year the authorization for the release of all international adoptions, on suspicion of irregular procedures that, however, as they had at the time reported the same Congolese authorities did not concern Italy. In early November, the then Minister Kyenge Cécile, who had held the mandate for international adoptions, had carried out a mission in Democratic Republic of Congo getting insurance on a successful conclusion of the adoption by the Italian couples. Some families had left for the CongoBut were stuck in Country African without being able to bring home their children.

Six Congolese orphans who were adopted by Belgian families arrived in Brussels today after months of being held in limbo in Kinshasa. The Congolese authorities kept the children in the country’s capital since November following a Congolese moratorium on adoptions, according to Foreign Minister Didier Reynders.

“Several diplomatic efforts with the Congolese government have paid off,” said Reynders, who has said that he understands that the local authorities want to make sure the adoptions are in the best interest of the children, but reiterates that Belgium follows stringent and strict procedures when it comes to adoption. The children left Kinshasa yesterday aboard a Brussels Airlines flight, and arrived this morning in Zaventem.

The Congolese government established the moratorium on international adoptions in November because of suspicion of fraud and human trafficking. Unable to take their children home, seven adoptive parents were temporarily stuck in the Congolese capital, despite favourable court rulings in Belgium and the DRC. A Belgian woman who ended up in jail after trying to flee the country with her adoptive child is still detained, reports VRT.
