Terre des Hommes - (Switzerland).

Please Note: If you are adopted through this KSS’ Partner Western Adoption Agency (in the time frames during which KSS worked with this Partner Western Adoption Agency) then you should initiate a Birth Family Search through KSS in Seoul. For KSS Adoptees ONLY, please see: Step by Step Korea Social Service (KSS) Birth Family Search.

1968 - 1978 or 1979: KSS adopts to Terres des Hommes (TH) in Switzerland in this time period.

KSS only sent Adoptees to Switzerland for a short period of time.

If you are a Swiss KSS / Terre des Hommes Adoptee, we highly recommend starting a Birth Family Search with KSS in Seoul.


Terre des Hommes is still in operation in Switzerland, though it no longer facilitates adoptions from S. Korea.
