If you want to know more about the progress on this issue to date, read "Dancing on the Waves", by John Mulligan, foreword by Brendan Kennelley, published by Collins Press, available from all good bookshops or from: www.amazon.com or from the publishers at www.collinspress.ie.
This book relates the story of the struggle to achieve progress on this issue in Romania by Focus on Romania and its partner organisations over the last few years. It is a riveting read, and remains the definitive book on the entire Romanian orphanage experience and the story of Irish volunteer involvement in Romania. If you ever donated money to the aid effort in Romania, or you know someone who worked in Romanian orphanages or adopted a child from Romania, or if you just want to know more about the Romanian issue you should read this fascinating and interesting book.
All royalties from "Dancing on the waves" go to help with the work of the Aurelia Trust, an Irish NGO working with abandoned and at-risk children in Eastern Europe. You can find "Dancing on the waves" in the "travel writing" section of your local bookshop, or online from www.amazon.com or direct from the publishers http://www.collinspress.ie/products.asp?id=17
