a moment for pretty much the opposite where retreat from the world could actually save every generation has its moment this one is ours. from the impoverished communities the himalayas the poles children the traffic in the south. separated from their families boys and girls forced to pose as orphans to attract foreign donations. now finally hitting hard but will their parents accept them one i want to east follows the journey of the children caught up in the polls a legal open track. i'm on my way to make a special group of children. this place is quite important in the whole crisis of how things are it's to god that's right. i must say this is a transit high on the outskirts of katmandu all of the children here have been rescued from a legal orphanages a going to try seeing how many ha they were trafficked from their villages deep in the mountains. next bit 10 year old davy is finding her voice again what about that one. lou lou that's right. she's mischievous sometimes she cracks jokes she is very very friendly with all the children and she just loves it carefree type of child she is so she's a bit of a character yes she is she is there and the world. it's a lot to do that they're ok on this is going to be difficult that being a. bit lonely as a guard and want to play. despite everything she's been through davy hasn't lost. as a good is it or are the dream of home i'm strong. on they're going to put that wanted. no i can't imagine how these young children between the age of 3 to 9 or 10 how can they be separated you know how can they live away for so many years so many months. yes lou that's in a few days the children will start the long trip back to their families that's. the poles mountain regions are as beautiful as they are poor opportunities here often. many parents who might feel ages want to bet a lot for their children. often age recruiters pride on that just. families hand over the savings on the promise of an education for their kids in katmandu. but there's a catch. all orphanages might provide some schooling. the children are falsely presented as all phones to attract foreign sponsors and volunteers know that. it's an industry exploited by nepalis but driven by western democracies. we're trained in western countries to think a certain way about developing countries and one of those ways is that. often edges are a great way of caring for children who are who would otherwise be living in poverty and that in combination with the good intentions and the funding and the flow of volunteers just drives the separation of church or from their families. the cold hard facts are there are enough often ends to volunteer with or fund this whole industry so the orphans of being invented paper often say are often made by their fortunate documentation i mean like. a struggling lawyer kate bedore speaks from 1st hand experience in 2006 she and some friends write used funds to open an orphanage in kathmandu with an initial in tiger of 6 girls handed over by another institution. personally sponsored the smallest child 4 year old alicia. i felt a huge sense of responsibility towards fair but i also wondered where are her parents and why is she off and we just ashamed to parents but dad she was too small to tell us otherwise for more than a decade cases my entire into contact with alicia and the other girls today they reunited for the 1st time in 5 years. but it's you. so don't. take it in. one. family the earth there in the room or is it the. case knows now that all the girls have a living family. ever speak a g.s.t. . in 2012 in order to reveal that being trafficked as paper before entering hurricane yeah we found 41 death certificates and birth certificates. we found that the children's names had been changed to prevent a surprise family finding them. and i thought if they've got family. there's no way that they should be here without us. if they've got family land we need to find a way to get them home. kites organization forget me nots began the process of tracing the families they discovered alicia's parents had been searching for her for years and we got that news i remember crying when her father came to katmandu to see aleisha he hadn't seen her for 6 or 7 years and he kept her chin and he turned a head and she has a scar just here and he touched a skier and then he lifted her forehead and she has a scar tissue from when she was obviously a small child and he said this is this is my child. you can't even if you. did nothing else. was the most important. just moments ago. forget me not has completely changed its mission from off an age to reuniting children with their families. after living at home with her family for 4 years alicia has returned to katmandu to enroll in college and to mentor children like davey got to. see that if there are no foreign staff volunteers at the transit on the care is in the hands of nepalis they know what needs to be done today institutionalise this country they're on their way there and we just felt that it's more important to have a holy voice in that process than it is to have an honest question that process but i think that the staff carefully build trust with the children so they can try to find their families. when the children start trusting you justing us the team here then they start telling more stories about the previous orphanage or the family members. under the one is helping to put the pieces back together when you are able to reunite a child with her or his family i think is the best thing in the world that's how i feel and my t. he. was a lad with him by liam over and. many of the children like davey are still traumatized that over there was the head . hurt. the button button go like this video shows the dye that davy and the other children were rescued from the illegal orphanage that had been held on the outskirts of katmandu for more than 6 months at the heart of for better life here they were lured the families were tricked but actually the life which they were living in this place. was hell. the orphanage owners had filed to secure sponsors main while the children went hungry. boys me you know and i think that anger is good for me because that will help me to talk in front of the government authorities and the people who are supporting orphanages that you are harming children. davey's own arms cowburn our border has been charged with trafficking the children it's common in the orphanage tried for relatives to be used as go betweens. kalpa na has agreed to speak publicly for the 1st time she climbs she was assured the children would receive quality schooling and accommodation but she filed to rise the alarm when she saw the terrible conditions. over so much. native by the other bad unless academy after what had been avoided by it was that any mayor who did nothing about that is of a day there are fluff no matter. what another one day may miss who the navy captain are says she tried to help the children. w. for a bone and they will but it may so give us here a way if that is the most part is i guess my the cause of his whole mess i think oh boy lagaan but once i get into it it's a cat finds out he's had this little subway to 30 i've got a photograph of him in a place that's a company is out on file but he'll be gyal if she's found guilty. of a moby that are not bad no they asked me who by and they is mother. this summer lizzie pointed over north wales over the big government and say boy oh but minister has any. good to amend it is the message to the 2 heads. the court proceedings take years to resolve. at the transit home davie and the other children are preparing to go home to home. you're. just like the kids to be lama is from home. so isn't theirs and ours is organization the himalayan innovative society is partnering with forget me nots to ensure the children arrive home safely. and interview anybody number but you ain't getting what they asked. about i am asked to use when doesn't he or you know. i mean. you're going home in sign good barge the stuff at the transit hard. that. even though it's for all the right reasons leaving his behind. that. there are no roads to houma it will take 2 flights to get there. the children have bonded through the ordeal that she did it in less than 24 hours they will be going their separate why it's. to be lomond on this it will be challenging. when the attack. orphan is in everyone faint. but once the come back to defend me it is a hierarchy of family members so you have to respect each of the family members differently so that it will be difficult for the thai. it's a rough ride. as the plane gets closer the children start recognizing their villages bill maher. homework is one of the most impoverished and isolated parts of nepal its capital simak caught sits at almost $3000.00 masons. so high the prime banding needs to make it to see. the kids whites for their families to arrive early for you to get. the canada and the us i want to get the family that. doesn't live here the past day. at 1st the children i'm not sure how to reconnect. but i'm told no more talk about what if a local culture is reserved. for come by now i believe it will because here i am going to have a new move because well got her on her mcconaughey plane then the other no longer talk about winning but at the end i pulled on and i saw you saying don't i mean this is just the start of a complex process stevie lamas job isn't just to reunite the families a to help them through the hardships that separated them in the 1st place. you knew you go over there. to hear her. to hear her. going on that. i don't. know if you see. a. 30 going to care the news or. when you know. we are not the only sending the ties back to family but we support higher education hours of his not finished college of staff from the air because we have to. watch all the v.a. vs the changes in the family and counseled them included in. the 10 year old davy is do why didn't you as the die ages you got is not the way that it was no no no no no no at last davies mother kawasaki arrives who are there. who need cash. and best to custom dic tights that she greets the men in the 1st. person lay there when they pull up the pool and maybe do that and there are no shadows of a fiction a day view but one man in my ability to you know so to tell you what he budgeted no that's atlantic city. yet here i. am with you i hope that i'm with you now until davies mom trusted that her daughter was being educated and cared for incrementally now she's learning the reality. it's not easy putting families back together after almost a year but the children are more worldly now runs out ahead of that many of the parents have never met the mountains. the detainees. are going to their home. did you hear that. there's only one wife a davey to get hired on forced. to villages deep in the mountains a day's walk from sema caution it will be a difficult training. it's not until you get out here that you really understand just how father traffic is prepared to god to get children so they also need to market in katmandu it also gives a sense of the oscillation and remarked miss that the parents of fighting the desperate for opportunities and education for their children. davies mom has lived to last if he would struggle 3 of her 6 children died of illness. are you here and you could happen with a beauty of magic if you knew he had money on her. after night gamma though it seems that i is yeah a minority on a half a that is to say that. and the everyday orderly on that island. davies journey back to her village is finally i thought. to be great so psystar only it's an awkward region yet and. they've lived very different lives since davey left to katmandu distance but once the davies family will receive financial support to send her and hourly to school in the village social workers will check on them for the next 3 to 5 years if you look at the level that it's very i live where they had to go through as i am well aware of her. well again gotta have more more she didn't give us here you delay i am

know who are not but a washout also and they did. work in the good good. family with our are from the most because the food lines are. also on. i would say please do not volunteer or fund often ages this is not just a problem in the poll but it's actually a global problem and we know it is up to 8000000 children living in open just across the world and we know are that 80 percent of them have a parent that could care for them if they was deported and that's astounding quite venturis campaigning to end the flow of funds candy it's really hard to get a paper to change their minds that she
