A web site called The Standard posted an article today which says that the government of Kenya is going to establish a government body that will centralize child adoptions.

"[Moody] Awori said the Government would ratify international conventions on adoption and harmonize them with local laws in a bid to control the process."

HIV and Aids have ravished parts of Africa, including Kenya, where about 2 million children have been orphaned by the disease. All of those children need homes, and centralized adoption processes is an important first step.
