Understand what drives child abandonment in a community and the need for adoption.
Understand the process to follow if an abandoned child is found in your community.
Understand the legal process of adoption.
Develop guiding values and principles to ensure the care and protection of all children.
Develop a detailed action and implementation plan to ensure meaningful and sustainable change.

The process and timing illustrated below shows how you can run a child abandonment and adoption workshop over 2 hours.
