Presentation of the EFA-FNEPE report Share by CHILDHOOD AND ADOPTIONAL FAMILIES - FEDERATION

At the address indicated or via videoconference: EFA and Fnepe are pleased to invite you to participate in the presentation of the action research report conducted by sociologist Laura Biteaud. The author's presentation will be followed by two roundtable discussions.

Between "trust" and "betrayal": the impact of illicit practices in international adoption on families' experiences 

A complex reality with multiple repercussions 

Based on testimonies, this report is a deep dive into the journey and experiences of families, parents, and adoptees, uncovering the illicit practices of international adoption, often revealed during the search for origins. In addition to the repercussions that, like a shock wave, reach well beyond the family itself, the study sheds light on the "adoption system" as a "sociological object" and its consequences, leading to proposals for improvement in the fields of adoption and the search for origins.
