This toolkit, which is a key resource for all Central Adoption Authorities and other actors in responding to potential past practices and in preventing any illicit practice, is comprised of the following four parts:
- fact sheets on illicit practices;
- a checklist to assist decision-making by Central Authorities;
- a Model Procedure to respond to suspected and actual cases of illicit practices; and
- guidelines on enhancing cooperation and coordination to prevent and address illicit practices, including patterns.
This material was developed by the Hague Conference on Private International Law, with the support and cooperation of the Working Group on Preventing and Addressing Illicit Practices in Intercountry Adoption and Members and Central Authorities.
