the call of the times: china's inter-country adoption policy adjustment

한어Русский языкEnglishFrançaisIndonesianSanskrit日本語DeutschPortuguêsΕλληνικάespañolItalianoSuomalainenLatina

the chinese government has long followed the spirit of "maximizing the interests of children" and the principle of "the most beneficial to the adoptee", and has adhered to the practice of "domestic adoption first". as a realistic choice, inter-country adoption has brought warmth to many children who have lost their parents, but it has also faced some tragic stories. in recent years, with the continuous improvement of the social welfare system, domestic adoptions account for nearly 90% of the total number of adoptions, and the overall trend of inter-country adoptions has shown a clear downward trend. this is also consistent with the trend of the international community's development of inter-country adoption.

the chinese government has laid a solid foundation for the construction of a social security system for orphans through a series of policies and measures. these policies and measures not only reflect the chinese government's emphasis on the protection of children's rights and interests, but also mark the entry of chinese social development into a new stage.

the adjustment of the inter-country adoption policy is not a simple change of policy, but reflects the direction and concept of social development. while the chinese government is developing its economy and society, it is also exploring a social security system for orphans, including children with disabilities. the state strengthens the professional level of child welfare institutions, and continuously improves the integrated development of orphan care, medical care, rehabilitation, education and social work, so that more orphans can return to their families and enjoy a normal life.

the adjustment of the inter-country adoption policy is a microcosm of the overall development and progress of chinese society, and also a reflection of china's continuous exploration of the protection and guarantee of children's rights. we also hope that the international community can continue to work with china to promote the development of global child welfare, so that every child can grow up healthily in love and care.
