Naar aanleiding van het RTL programma 'Met Open Armen'.

Naar aanleiding van het RTL-programma ‘Met Open Armen’ kwam adoptie de afgelopen dagen in de media. Op vrijdag 21 november heeft een opiniestuk over adoptie van Ina Hut, van 2003 tot 2009 directeur van Wereldkinderen, in Trouw gestaan. Ook was zij aan het woord in het tv-programma KRO-Brandpunt op zondag 23 november. Zij stelde op persoonlijke titel een aantal misstanden binnen het adoptieveld aan de kaak.

Met Open Armen

In KRO-Brandpunt werd ook de TV-serie ‘Met Open Armen’ besproken. Wereldkinderen heeft vroegtijdig besloten niet mee te werken aan dit programma om de privacy van kinderen te beschermen.

What does the EU think about international adoption?

Text: Adoption Forum // Date: 22-05-2012

In recent years, doubts have been raised about whether the European Union respects international adoption as a solution for children who cannot grow up in a permanent family in their own country.

First Published 30.01.2008

The doubts arose when Romania and Bulgaria wanted to become members of the EU. Those who negotiated for the Union made it clear that progress in child welfare was necessary if the two countries were to be accepted. The requirement was in some contexts made so that the countries had to be able to "take care of their own children". This was interpreted as - at least by some - that international adoption had to be discontinued.

Ai.Bi., il secondo ente in Europa

Ai.Bi. è il secondo ente della rete di
EurAdopt per numero di adozioni internazionali portate a termine nel
2011. Il buon lavoro di Ai.Bi. si segnala dunque, oltre che in Italia, anche
all’estero, all’interno di una rete che gode di largo credito presso le Autorità
Centrali del continente.

Euradopt è una rete composta da associazioni e
organismi di dodici Paesi europei che operano a servizio del minore abbandonato,
in vista di promuoverne e accompagnarne l’adozione internazionale. L’Italia è
presente con i due enti autorizzati Ai.Bi. e CIAI.

Ethiopia meeting in Brussels 11 of EurAdopt’s member associations work in Ethiopia, and EurAdopt called a meeting on this country in Brussels on 13th December 2010. There is a growing concern among the member associations about the adoption situation in the country. There are many actors in the field of adoptions, and it is a challenge for the Ethiopian authorities to monitor all orphanages and adoption mediators. EurAdopt plan to hold a meeting in Ethiopia late March 2011, and has encouraged Central Authorities in receiving states to assist the Government of Ethiopia in their effort to ratify the 1993 Hague Convention on intercountry adoptions. EurAdopt currently has 29 member organizations from 12 European countries. Adopsjonsforum is a founding member of EurAdopt. For further information, take a look at EurAdopt’s web page: http://portal.euradopt.org.

– UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION –

 One of Scandinavia’s largest adoption agencies has illegally adopted children.
In the early 1990s Norwegian Adopsjonsforum brought children from
Argentina, despite the fact that the South American country had banned
international adoptions. Several years later one of the children was
still reported as missing in his homecountry.

Who’s who?

Eva Giberti: Works in the Argentinian Home Office and is
the nation’s leading expert in adoptions.

 Alberto Mazzaroni: Argentine judge who is accused of abiding
to child trafficking.
