Plus NINE more intitiatives engaging a spectrum of stakeholders across the adoption ecosystem.

Are you a leading brand of India that leaves lasting impressions upon young minds. Amidst rising infertility cases and lowering voluntary births, more and more GenZ is turning towards adoption. Help them by creating awareness about safe and legal adoptions. Offer us a 1 hour talk on Adoption Process, Do’s and Dont’s, the journey ahead and planning a family through adoption.

Did you know that there were at least TEN different types of Adoption? Our experts have curated processes, experiences, lessons and learnings across various adoption types, each with its unique trajectory and asks – such as Domestic, International, Special Needs, Single Parenting etc. Discover Adoption across all possibilities.

Each story of adoption offers an unparalleled perspective. There is love, hope, despair, desperation, trauma, care, trial and tribulation to say the least. What remains common is the unconditional bond of l;ove that binds them all. The journey unfolds as curiosity for some, compromise for others or a unique discovery of human emotions. We bring together adoption in all its hues.

From a very patronising look of “How noble”, to utter surprise and shock OR pure admiration, families in adoption are a living museum of responses to adoption from their next of kith-and-kin, employees, friends, colleagues or even unrelated passengers on a plane. Join us on a roller coaster ride of emotions, Aha! and Oh so! moments related to adoption, from people touched on their peripheries by adoption.

It takes a village to raise a child – LITERALLY. Adoption doesn’t happen how Bollywood shows. There is a battery of professionals to the trade – some burning the midnight oil, while other sifting through reams of paperwork. Get insights from doctors, lawyers, judges, social workers, birth parents and parents-in-adoption on their contribution and take aways from being in such a niche and hush-hush domain.

They remember and carry each moment, against popular perception – from being placed into adoption, to being adopted, being raised by families of JOY and having weathered the gaze of their friends, relatives, unsuspecting passers by – often sifting through the crowds – as if trying to place their identity, and striving hard to create one. Hear from the Horses mouth – what it means to be an Adoptee.

Adoption doesn’t end with the child coming home – the journey has just begin. As the child begins to grow and develop her own identity, there are questions, moments of discovery, turns of hope and surprise that can only be navigated with the help of professionals in the field who offer guidance on trauma, learning challenges, social skills etc. Enter the world of specialists – an array of service providers in adoption.

We have heard the adoption tales of Krishna. But did you know that adoption has touched upon every faith, geography and century of civilisation. Join us in expanding our horizons to this less chartered domain. If it were not for adoption, we would not have had Rana Pratap or Steve Jobs to name a few. Let’s explore the heritage of adoption through history and mythology, mining gems of tales and anecdotes.

There is nothing like a touch and feel ASSET on adoption, that we can turn to, refer to a fried or pass on as heirloom to the next generation. All these exciting anecdotes and artefacts are being curated in a COLLECTOR’s COPY on Adoption. Be ready to open your UPI apps to contribute towards Ads or Sponsored Content! There is also an exciting opportunity to carry your artwork on Cover of this priceless Souvenir!
