Abstract
This paper reviews recent developments pertinent to
inter-country adoption in Southern and Eastern
Africa. In particular, it focuses on the tripartite roles
of governments, the judiciary and the international
community, including the international media. It
argues that a concerted effort towards
awareness-raising is required in order to harmonise
the respective roles of the above players, and in order
to better regulate the practice.
