From "reinhard.fichtl@tdh.ch" <reinhard.fichtl@tdh.ch>

Dear friends and colleagues

We have again updated the digital library http://www.childtrafficking.com  - a South Asia-based website supported by many activists around the globe. All forms of trafficking are addressed, including trafficking for labor purposes. The website focuses on children, and includes the latest information on strategies for trafficking prevention, as well as for the rehabilitation and reintegration of victims of trafficking. The digital library http://www.childtrafficking.com  focuses on the outcomes of trafficking, such as the use of forced labor or slavery like practices, no matter how people arrive in these conditions.

The update includes 7 new documents dealing with the nexus of ADOPTION & TRAFFICKING


Cambodian League for the Promotion and Defense of Human Rights. (2002). Testimony to the U.S. Congress Hearing on the Adoption Process in Cambodia. 6 p. In this written testimony to the U.S. House of Representatives International Relations Committee, Dr.Kek Galabru details illegal and unethical practices in the adoption process in Cambodia. http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?CID=07e1cd7dca89a1678042477183b7ac3f|525955

ETHICA (2007). Comments on Department of Homeland Security Regulations: Classification of Aliens as Children of United States Citizens Based on Intercountry Adoptions Under the Hague Convention. 19 p. Ethica has received reports from several countries (India, Guatemala, Nepal) where women are required to pay back expenses (e.g., delivery expenses, newborn care) if they choose not to relinquish. In countries where women are living in impoverished conditions, such tactics can only be viewed as highly coercive." http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=1&CID=07e1cd7dca89a1678042477183b7ac3f|525955

Jamal, M. (2005). Children at Risk: Child Trafficking through Adoption Agencies. 17 p. "The role of adoption agencies in poor countries as facilitators of child trafficking needs to be examined more carefully. The onus for the safety of the children lies with both the sender and the receiver countries. This paper aims to highlight some of the possible risks involved for the children who are not monitored after being sent to a foreign nation. It focuses on the Indian inter-country adoption procedure and examines the need for modifying current welfare policies and legislation." http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=2&CID=07e1cd7dca89a1678042477183b7ac3f|525955

Terre des hommes Foundation and United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). (2005). L'adoption internationale en Haïti. 114 p. The Terre des hommes/UNICEF study revealed that the number of crèches involved in inter-country adoptions had seen a spectacular increase in recent years with fees reaching USD 10,000, mostly to pay lawyers processing the adoptions. In French. http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=4&CID=07e1cd7dca89a1678042477183b7ac3f|525955

United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). Innocenti Research Centre. (1998). Intercountry Adoption. 24 p. It looks at intercountry adoption as one of a series of possible solutions for children unable to live with their families. Broadly accepted international instruments specify the conditions under which intercountry adoption is to be undertaken if the rights and best interests of the children concerned are to be protected and fully respected. http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=12&CID=eb160de1de89d9058fcb0b968dbbbd68%7C52595b

United Nations Mission in Liberia. (UNMIL). (2007). Human Rights in Liberia's Orphanages. 44 p. "In addition to these abuses, the study confirmed that many illegal overseas adoptions were taking place through orphanages, facilitated by weak Government adoption procedures. Such adoptions close any chance of reunification of the child with his or her family and may prevent the child from knowing his or her true identify and cultural background." http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=4&CID=07e1cd7dca89a1678042477183b7ac3f|525955

Worotynec, Z.F. (2006). Child, Interrupted: International Adoption in the context of Canadian Policy on Immigration, Multiculturalism, Citizenship, and Child Rights. 41 p. This paper examines how international adoption fits within the legal and conceptual framework of Canadian policy and legislation and international treaties to which Canada is a party. http://www.childtrafficking.com/Content/Library/?pg=4&CID=07e1cd7dca89a1678042477183b7ac3f|525955
