Read More JOINT STATEMENT Cambodia and Italy Must Not Recommence Intercountry Adoptions / DICHIARAZIONE CONGIUNTA Cambogia e Italia non riaprano le adozioni internazionali
We, the undersigned organisations, call on the Cambodian and Italian governments to immediately halt the reopening of intercountry adoptions. Cambodia has not enacted safeguards that will sufficiently protect the best interests of the child or prevent reoccurrences of the severe fraud and corruption that marked intercountry adoptions in the past. Noi, sottoscritte organizzazioni, lanciamo un appello ai governi di Cambogia e Italia affinché blocchino immediatamente la riapertura delle adozioni internazionali. La Cambogia non ha implementato sistemi di protezione in grado di tutelare il massimo interesse dei bambini o di prevenire il ripresentarsi di gravi problemi di frode e corruzione che hanno in passato caratterizzato il sistema delle adozioni internazionali.
