#18: Mensenhandel en Interlandelijk Adoptie: Ina Hut (NL)
Net zoals discriminatie van vrouwen in Nederland en de rest van de wereld nog steeds problematisch is, zo ook het systeem van (internationale) adoptie. Bijna niemand weet dit zo goed als Ina Hut.<br />Van 2003 tot 2009 was zij directeur van Wereldkinderen, een van de grootste adoptiebureaus van Nederland. Tijdens haar periode bij deze organisatie begon ze met onderzoek naar de achtergronden van adopties van kinderen uit China en werd ze meerdere keren onder druk gezet door het Nederlandse ministerie van Justitie om haar onderzoek onmiddellijk te stoppen, dit op straffe van het intrekken van de vergunning van Wereldkinderen7. Zij nam in 2009 als klokkenluider publiekelijk ontslag als directeur. Dit kreeg veel media-aandacht en leidde tot een Algemeen Overleg in de Tweede Kamer, waarbij de minister van Justitie zich o.a. moest verantwoorden over de intimidatie van Ina Hut. Ina Hut schreef ten behoeve van dit overleg een rapport over het systeem van interlandelijk adopties (o.a. uit China). <br />Ina Hut is sinds 2015 directeur van het Coördinatiecentrum Mensenhandel (CoMensha en expert opinion leader in de strijd tegen mensenhandel. <br /><br />Website Coördinatiecentrum Mensenhandel/ Coördinatiecentrum Mensenhandel: <a href="https://www.comensha.nl/" rel="noopener">https://www.comensha.nl/</a><br /><br />Produced by Sarah Tekath in collaboration with Broadcast Amsterdam<br />More information: <a href="https://broadcastamsterdam.nl/shows/separated-by-force/" rel="noopener">https://broadcastamsterdam.nl/shows/separated-by-force/</a><br /><br />© Sarah Tekath/Broadcast Amsterdam

#17: Human Trafficking and Intercountry Adoption: Ina Hut (ENG)
Just as discrimination against women in the Netherlands and around the world is still problematic, so can the system of (international) adoption be problematic. Hardly anyone knows this as well as Ina Hut. <br />From 2003 till 2009 she was the Executive Director of the organisation Wereldkinderen, one of the biggest adoption agencies in the Netherlands. During her time at this organisation, she started to investigate the background of adoptions of children from China and was multiple times pressured by the Dutch ministry of justice to put her investigation to an immediate stop on pain of revoking the license of Wereldkinderen.<br />In 2009 she resigned from her position as the Executive Director as a whistleblower which got a lot of media attention in the Netherlands and forced the minister of justice to face his responsibilities in the Tweede Kamer oft he Dutch parliament a.o. for trying to intimidate Ina Hut. For this debate she wrote a report about the system of intercountry adoptions (a.o. from China). Since 2015 is Ina Hut Executive Director of the Dutch Coördinatiecentrum against Mensenhandel (CoMensha) and expert opinion leader in the fight against human trafficking. <br /><br />Website Coordinationcenter against Human Trafficking/ Coördinatiecentrum tegen Mensenhandel: <a href="https://www.comensha.nl/" rel="noopener">https://www.comensha.nl/</a><br /><br />Special thanks for the voice-over to Martina Novak: <a href="https://www.martinan.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.martinan.com/</a><br /><br />Produced by Sarah Tekath in collaboration with Broadcast Amsterdam<br />More information: <a href="https://broadcastamsterdam.nl/shows/separated-by-force/" rel="noopener">https://broadcastamsterdam.nl/shows/separated-by-force/</a><br /><br />© Sarah Tekath/Broadcast Amsterdam
