Haïti, de l'adoption au trafic

Haïti, de l'adoption au trafic

LE MONDE | 10.02.2010 à 13h35 • Mis à jour le 18.07.2011 à 13h51 | Par Jean-Michel Caroit - Port-au-Prince et Saint-Domingue Correspondant

Dix jours après le séisme qui a dévasté Haïti, une employée de l'Unicef rendait visite à des collègues évacués de Port-au-Prince à l'hôtel Santo Domingo, sur le front de mer de la capitale dominicaine. Un groupe de plusieurs dizaines de jeunes enfants haïtiens, accompagnés de quelques étrangers, attire son attention. Interrogé, un des responsables du groupe réplique que ces enfants ont été adoptés de manière légale et qu'ils partent vers l'Allemagne.

La fonctionnaire de l'Unicef demande en vain à voir les documents des enfants, et alerte le Conseil national pour l'enfance et l'adolescence (Conani), l'instance dominicaine chargée de la protection des mineurs. Une discussion tendue s'engage, qui monte d'un cran avec l'arrivée de l'ambassadeur d'Allemagne à Saint-Domingue, Christian Germann.

Péremptoire, il affirme avoir les autorisations nécessaires au départ du groupe d'enfants, tant des autorités haïtiennes que dominicaines. Il exige, et obtient, que le groupe de 63 enfants, âgés de moins de 5 ans, s'envole le soir même vers Francfort. Ce départ houleux s'est produit après la directive du premier ministre haïtien, Jean-Max Bellerive, en date du 20 janvier, exigeant sa signature pour toute adoption d'enfant. Aucun de ceux partis vers l'Allemagne n'a obtenu cette autorisation signée par le premier ministre.

Giving back - Kate van Doore's story

The orphanage co-founder

Five years ago, van Doore's friend Lars Olsen asked her to help him set up an orphanage in Nepal. Six months later they opened the Forget Me Not Children's Home in Kathmandu, with van Doore as the Australian-based president.

"My friend witnessed terrible corruption and abuse in Nepal, and returned wanting to set up his own charity. He came to me because I was just out of law school," she says. "I did all the legals, which would otherwise have cost us thousands.

Privat endete das alte Jahr für den Aacher Bürgermeister Severin Graf und seine Frau Renate mit einer schönen Überraschung. Endlich konnten sie ihre beiden Adoptivtöchter Sintayehu und Kalkidan aus Äthiopien in die Arme schließen. Mittlerweile können die Neu-Aacher schon die ersten deutsche Wörter.

Aach – „Wir sind jetzt zu viert!“, überraschte Bürgermeister Severin Graf aus Aach seine Gemeinde zum neuen Jahr im Amtsblatt. Die Mitteilung zierte ein Bild seiner perfekten bundesdeutschen Durchschnittsfamilie: Vater Severin, Mutter Renate und zwei Töchter Kalkidan Klara und Sintayehu Deborah. Das Besondere daran: Die Töchter, Kalkidan (3,5 Jahre) und Sintayehu (ein Jahr), sind Adoptivtöchter aus Äthiopien. Wir haben die neue Familie zum Gespräch bei Kaffee und Kuchen und fröhlichem Umtrieb besucht.

‘Sorry, I can’t disclose the identity of Haynes’s mum’

Haynes, who was separated from her American husband and two children — aged six and five — as a result of her abrupt deportation, had alleged various malpractices under the guise of foreign adoptions.


Twenty-one years after 85-year-old Clarice D’souza gave away Jennifer Haynes, 28, in adoption to US national George Hancox, she filed an affidavit in the Bombay high court, stating that she could not disclose the identity of her biological mother.

Haynes was deported to India owing to incomplete adoption formalities at the time of her adoption in 1989.

Haynes, who was separated from her American husband and two children — aged six and five — as a result of her abrupt deportation, had alleged various malpractices under the guise of foreign adoptions and sought action against the Americans for International Aid and Adoption that processed her adoption.

Refuting allegations made by Haynes, D’souza, a trustee of the now defunct Kuanyin Charitable Trust from where Haynes was adopted, has stated that many children are adopted by US nationals and they settle and adapt well.

D’souza has stated that Haynes allegations are baseless and her petition in court is not maintainable, as she has not exhausted the remedies available to her.

An exasperated Haynes said: “More than anything else, I want to go back to my children. But now that I am here in India I want to know something about myself, my family, my mother. I don’t want to go back to the US empty-handed.”

But D’souza’s affidavit suggests she will have to remain clueless about her parents. The 85-year-old said that revealing her mother’s identity would be a breach of confidentiality her mother was promised at the time of surrendering her child. She also states that it is now over 20 years since the documents were submitted to the court and she does not have them anymore. Haynes’s advocate Pradeep Havnur has sought two weeks time from the court to file a reply.

Child-adoption reforms deserve support

Child-adoption reforms deserve support

Opinion

MONDAY, 08 FEBRUARY 2010 20:03

THIS week starts the observance of National Adoption Consciousness Week, with the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) taking the lead, as it advocates a better appreciation of the law—enacted last year—that laid down firmer safeguards to prevent abuse and illegal trafficking in children, while at the same time ensuring that children who need adoption most will, indeed, end up with families who deserve them and can raise them as good persons.

The DSWD has put special focus, in this year’s observance, on the perils of simulated births where, instead of a legally documented adoption, a child is made to appear as the biological offspring of another person not his/her parents. But beyond the perils of simulation, legal adoption should really be supported, both for the sake of the children and the parents, adoptive or biological.

Adopting a poor child

Adopting a poor child

Monday, 08 February 2010 22:19

Promotes common good One of the things the rich and upper middle class families can do to help reduce our country’s mass poverty problem—which means helping human beings have a better life—is adopting an abandoned child. Or adopting a child whose parents, realizing their child’s need for a better life in the bosom of another family, would give him or her up.

The adoptive parents should of course be willing to invest their love in another human being in addition to those they have already as their birth sons and daughters.

They should realize that by adopting another child they will be dutybound to give the child a loving and caring family, a cradle of life and love.

Das Erdbeben hat Haitis Waisenhäuser verwüstet - Adoptionen stocken, und die Kinder leiden unter dem Chaos

Port-au-Prince - "Foyer d'Espoir" heißt Hort der Hoffnung. Es ist der Name eines Waisenheimes, das knapp 20 Kilometer außerhalb von Port-au-Prince liegt, in Thomassin, einer bergigen Gegend, für die man einen Wagen mit kräftigem Allradantrieb braucht. 23 Kinder zwischen drei Monaten und vier Jahren hat Madame Vital hier unter ihren - wie sagte man früher - "Fittichen". Madame Vital ist, zumindest in Frankreich, keine ganz unbekannte Person. Denn Frankreich ist das Land, das die meisten Kinder aus Haiti adoptiert. Knapp 1000 waren es im vergangenen Jahr. Einige davon kamen auch aus Madame Vitals Foyer.
