Indigo Willing is an advocate for Vietnamese adoptees; in 2000 she set up Adopted Vietnamese Internation (AVI).

The network is run by volunteers & although based in Australia, it is an international with members in European countries as well as in North America.

As stated on their website:

“One of the main aims of AVI is to provide a range of resources and opportunities for adopted Vietnamese to explore their community and history and to share their unique insights on adoption with adoptive parents and birth parents, the wider trans-racial adoption community, younger generations of adopted Vietnamese, general members of the Vietnamese Diaspora and other cultural communities.”
