Contemporary urban South Africa has all of the challenges identified as causes of child abandonment in global studies on the subject:

  • Contemporary urban South Africa has all of the challenges identified as causes of child abandonment in global studies on the subject:

    • Restrictive legislation
    • Poverty
    • Mass urbanization
    • High levels of violence (rape is a major concern)
    • Extreme gender inequality
    • High levels of HIV/AIDS (Which has also been gendered as a disease)
    • Diminishing family support
  • Institutional & foster care systems are under pressure due to over-use.

  • Despite its proven success globally, government appear hesitant to openly support adoption as a means to alleviate the crisis.

  • A review of African ancestral beliefs indicates that the ‘Western’ practice of adoption, where unrelated children are incorporated into families in a form of ‘created kinship’ is problematic in SA.
