Agapedia Romania

About Agapedia Romania

Romania suffered one of the worst dictatorships in south-east Europe, which slowly turned into social change with the revolution in 1989. In 1995, the Romanian Agapedia Foundation was founded in Brasov. Agapedia Romania was the first private NGO (non-governmental organisation) to start domestic adoptions for abandoned infants and toddlers aged 0 - 3 years. Agapedia Romania is one of only five accredited NGOs in Romania that has organised and implemented domestic adoptions together with the state authorities. Over the last 23 years, Agapedia Romania has initiated many other socio-medical services.

Facts

Romania suffered one of the worst communist dictatorships. The revolution in 1989 and EU accession in 2007 did not bring the hoped-for change. Large sections of the population are worse off today than in socialist times. Children and the elderly are the hardest hit. Agapedia has been registered as a Romanian foundation in Brasov since 1995.
