Abstract
Practitioner’s Keypoints
Based on the reviewed research findings, this paper supports the following arguments:
· overall, children adopted internationally can and do thrive in their adoptive countries;
· such success is guaranteed by the high commitment of adoptive parents and the availability of post-adoption support services;
· there is, however, a lack of evidence-based practice relating to interventions best suited to the needs of these children post-international adoption;
· following a globally standardised process and strict protocols may help alleviate illicit activity in international adoptions;
· existing guidelines must be tightened to ensure that children are the central focus in intercountry adoption and that their development is not affected by cross-border movement.
