Well, watching carefully and maybe a bit obsessivly all the news I can find on the MOWA situation in Ethiopia.
I will share all I get with you. Please feel free to comment and add anything your agency is sharing with you, etc.
I want to note a bit of an interesting twist too. I note that most, if not all articles are stating cut the adoptions. However, no where has it said anything more than they are cutting how many they do each day. That means that a child can still be adopted but it will just take, what five times longer..... ok, totally disheartening, but they are still adoptable, not cut out of adoption all together. Anyway, I have hope that this will last only a short time as everyone who is of any status in this field is on it to get things regulated in a more satisfactory way. I am glad they are acting in this manner rather than turning around and saying shut it down.
Here are two more articles on it.
An article out of a news page called Sea Coast online:
