Waisenhäuser sind teuer und können ihren Schutzbefohlenen sowohl seelisch, als auch körperlich, irreparable Schäden zufügen – warum sind sie dann immer noch so weit verbreitet? Georgette Mulheir beschreibt berührend die Tragik von Waisenhäusern und drängt uns, uns nicht mehr auf sie zu verlassen, sondern nach Alternativen zu suchen, um Kinder in Not zu unterstützen.

Georgette Mulheir is a pioneer for the movement to end child abuse in the form of orphanages. Full bio »
