According to Zdeněk Kapitán, the story of the boy and the girl is a great success:

"We are proud that we found a new home abroad for many siblings in 2021. Organizing the adoption of two or three children is very time-consuming - for the children as well as for the applicants. This requires a lot of personnel from us and a lot of patience and enthusiasm for the children on the part of the adoptive parents."

[INTERVIEW] Defender of inter-country adoptees' rights

Lee Kyung-eun to meet Korean adoptees during Europe book tour next month

By Jung Min-ho

If inter-country adoption truly was intended "for the best" of children born in poor countries, why doesn't anyone listen to them when they finally have a voice to say that it wasn't what they wanted?

Inter-country adoptees' access to knowledge of their origins is still denied over their biological parents' right to privacy in Korea, a nation that remains as one of the leading "baby exporters" despite being the world's 10th-largest economy today.

Lee Kyung-eun, 53, one of the most famous, indefatigable defenders of adoptees' rights and author of "The Global Orphan Adoption System," will listen to the voices of Korean adoptees in person next month during her book tour in four European cities ? Amsterdam, The Hague, Copenhagen and Stockholm.

Karnataka: Nurse Allegedly Involved In Child Trafficking Held By Vijayapura Police, Investigation Ongoing

Jaymala was found raising young children illegally and giving them to people without due process. She gave two children to two different households last week, bypassing the procedures laid out by the government.

The Vijayapura police have arrested a nurse for abducting children from hospitals and supplying them to childless parents. The accused has been identified as Jayamala Patil, who was working as a contract nurse at the primary health centre in Gigajivani village in Chatana taluk. Raising Children Illegally Jaymala is a resident of Athani Galli in Vijayapur city of Karnataka and was found raising young children illegally and giving them to people without due process, reported The Times of India. She gave two children to two different households last week, bypassing the procedures laid out by the government with the intention of trafficking them. Officers and staff of the city's women's police station arrested the convict and rescued two children from her home.

Child Trafficking Child trafficking is linked to the demand for cheap labour, especially where the working conditions are poor. Jayamala has taken advantage of the poor people and has started child trafficking. The action taken was based on a complaint by Childline, a child protection helpline. The police found that Jayamala employed two women in two separate houses in Athani Galli and Darbar Galli to take care of a three-year-old child and an 11-month-old baby. After searching these houses, they found the children, who were taken care of by women appointed by Jayamala for a monthly payment of ?3,000, The Hindustan Times reported. During the investigation of the matter, the Vijayapura police suspect that the accused has kept many such kids in different places as part of her child trafficking business. Government Efforts According to the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), trafficking is one of the worst forms of violation of human rights where a woman or a child is treated as a commodity and not as a human being. It has a vast network across the country that procure women and children from deep rural areas with low awareness of the issue or backbreaking poverty. Many NGOs working on Anti Trafficking have also reported that in many instances of recovered and rescued victims of trafficking, they can trace the missing person's report at the local police station level. The government is also taking the necessary actions against the trafficking that has been happening. Under the Child Protection Act, the government tracks every missing child.

A Jewish teen put her baby up for adoption in WWII. They just reunited.

Gerda Cole, 98, knew little about her only child apart from the name she gave her at birth. She wasn’t even sure if “Sonya” stuck.

In 1942, when she was just 18, Cole was brokenhearted as she gave her newborn daughter up for adoption to a German couple living in England. Cole had recently escaped Austria and the Nazis, and was living as a Jewish refugee in England.

“I felt it was only fair to her,” said Cole, explaining that she was in a miserable marriage that was falling apart and couldn’t afford to care for a child on her own. Cole is an only child, and though her mother managed to survive World War II, her father was killed by the Nazis.

As a teenage refugee, Cole had no money, no job, and was still adjusting to a new country. She didn’t think she had the means to give her daughter the life she deserved.

“It was hard,” Cole said from her retirement home in Toronto, where she has lived since 1990. “If I had been in a better position, I would have tried.”

Put up for adoption: Abandoned by father, Covid twins find a happy family

The first child was brought to the child protection unit in June and the second child, after she was declared physically and discharged from the hospital, in July last year.

After losing their mother to Covid-19 minutes after their birth and then their father a few months later who refused to take care of them, two newborn girls saw another ray of hope after they were both adopted by a financially able couple.

It was in the middle of the second wave of the pandemic in June last year when a woman in labour tested positive for Covid-19, according to sources in Chandigarh’s child protection unit. Right after she gave birth to twins, she died

from the infection.

“One of the twins was slightly underweight and was kept under observation in the hospital; the second child was handed over to the father. He took the child home and then told the child protection unit that he could raise the child because he was a daily wager and cannot afford to raise her. He also said that since his wife was no more and he was alone, he didn’t want the child,” an official stated after a post-adoption follow-up.
