“The government has launched a whole-of-government response to restore the rights of and provide support for more than 168,000 overseas Korean adoptees estimated to be living around the world. The move is intended both to strengthen the state’s responsibility for human rights violations that occurred during past overseas adoption processes and to coordinate, across government, matters previously handled separately by different ministries, including adoption record management, restoration of nationality, and searches for birth families.”
