Championed by Australian actress Deborra-lee Furness, the week explores the process of adoption in Australia. It aims to facilitate open and ongoing dialogue between all parties to adoption, with the aim of increasing awareness of the complexities, challenges and opportunities involved.

This year's events include a forum on adoption and global poverty featuring guest speakers such as Tim Costello, Hugh Evans, Dr. Jane Aronson and Julian Morrow.
