Rolul administrației publice locale privind garantarea realizării drepturilor și intereselor copiilor

Abstract

In Moldova, there have been major developments regarding the protection of children's rights. A series of international documents have been signed and ratified, including those on the protection of children's rights, with national legislation largely adapted to international documents. at the central level, responsible for protecting the interests of children are the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, the People's Advocate for children's rights and legal bodies, and at the local level, a wider spectrum of competent authorities in the defense of children's rights is proliferating. the central public authorities involved in the protection of children's rights have general powers, covering the entire spectrum of rights guaranteed to children, while the local public authorities responsible for realizing children's rights have a very narrow sphere of activity, mainly limited to assisting children who are in risk situations, participate in the drawing up of the act of abandonment of the child, the application of the procedure of taking the child from the parents or from the persons in whose care he is, if, as a result of the initial assessment, it is found that there is an imminent danger for the life or health of the child.
