I was asked to respond to  "Illicit Adoption Responses from Lived Experience" for the Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH)  Working Group.

Past meetings details can be found on the HCCH's Website . Thank you, Lynelle and ICAV, for this opportunity. Arp / Speaks AtCLoud  -  Alessia Petrolito
