Running head: INTERNATIONAL ADOPTION IN UGANDA 1 The Effect of International Adoption as an Orphan Care Method in Uganda By Amy Bergey Submitted to the Honors Program Committee in partial fulfillment of the requirements for University Honors Scholars Southeastern University 2015 INTERNATIONAL ADOPTION IN UGANDA 2 Abstract International adoption has been gaining popularity since the end of the twentieth century (Selman, 2002). Throughout this increase in international adoptions, the focus has drifted away from its original goal of providing homes that are in the best interest of the children (Graff, 2008). It has become more common for international adoption agencies to conduct international adoptions as a profitable business strategy, as international adoptive parents pay an average of $40,000 for a child (MGLSD, 2012; Graff, 2008). While this is not always the case, corruption is prevalent in the system and can endanger children to trafficking and illegal adoptions (Graff, 2008).
