A very important indicator of showing respect for "Human Rights" is the way in which society treats its children. A society respectful of "Fundamental Rights" provides freedom and dignity to children and formulates suitable conditions in which it can develop all the potential of children.
Despite improvements in economic indicators with respect to Peru in general in recent years, 1 the situation of children in the country indicates that no great progress has been made in this area. According to the childhood development index, prepared by the National Institute of Statistics and Informatics - INEI of Peru, sixteen (16) of the twenty-four (24) departments nationwide are at low or very low levels in childhood development., which constitutes a serious problem. two
The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights of the Organization of American States has received very serious complaints about situations that affect the "Rights of children and adolescents in Peru", among which the following stand out: the exploitation of child labor, the situation young offenders and high infant mortality rates; however no one takes action on the matter.
On the other hand, when all the countries participants signed the “Convention on the Rights of the Child”, they truly committed themselves to the world and not just in word. Each member country, including Peru, had to change its legislation and implement concrete actions so that the rights of all children in its jurisdiction are fulfilled. For this reason, the Peruvian Government elaborated the "Children and Adolescents Code", which was promulgated on December 24, 1992.
The Code of Children and Adolescents is divided into four (4) sections or books: the first one develops the rights, duties and freedoms of children and adolescents. The second book deals with the organizations responsible for the care of children and adolescents of both sexes. The Ministry of Women and Social Development - MIMDES is the agency responsible for promoting children's plans at the national level. The next chapter focuses on the rights and duties of parents, in the event that the family does not live together. It also indicates what days the visitation regime, alimony, the rights of girls and boys who are abandoned and who can adopt them, etc. And the last book,it refers to how the institutions that promote the rights promoted by the Code have to function.

Review: On November 20, 1989, the United Nations Assembly approved one of the most important international instruments that the international community has achieved in terms of Human Rights: “The Convention on the Rights of the Child”.
The Convention conceptualizes the so-called comprehensive doctrine of child protection; in other words, specific rights are recognized for the first time for children and adolescents, which will definitively innovate the laws related to childhood in all the countries of the world. Likewise, the guidelines are given so that these rights are effectively put into practice.
The first act of the Peruvian government was to approve, through Legislative Resolution No. 25278, of August 3, 1990, the Convention on the Rights of the Child. Which was subsequently ratified in October of the same year, joining our national legislation with the rank of constitutional norm. Thus, because Peru ratified, by ratifying said international instrument, the promotion and protection of conceptualized rights; reason why it was imperative to write a new Code for children that would adapt the new concepts of international doctrine and that would respond to our reality, all the more so that the majority of the Peruvian population is under 18 years of age.
The government, through Ministerial Resolution No. 505-92-JUDS, of September 14, 1992, created the Commission in charge of preparing the “Children and Adolescents Code”, whose main characteristic was to integrate specialist professionals from various sectors of society: public officials, university professors, magistrates, practicing lawyers, social workers and representatives of non-governmental organizations., a structure that allowed a comprehensive vision of the problem of childhood in Peru; and to prepare the draft of the aforementioned Code.
The project was promulgated by Decree Law No. 26102, on December 24, 1992, and has among its main virtues, promoting the participation of civil society together with the State to achieve the well-being of Peruvian children.

Review: On December 24, 1992, the Children and Adolescents Code, the national normative body that develops the Convention on the Rights of the Child, was promulgated by Decree Law No. 26102, based on the doctrine of integral protection, recognizing itself by first time, children and adolescents as subjects of law. However, we are aware that modern and adequate legislation is not enough to sign that, in the reality of the facts, full exercise of the rights that are recognized by a legal norm is given, the legislative aspect is only the first big step.
On the other hand, the disclosure and dissemination of the CONA precepts is also required among the authorities, professionals and those responsible for precautionary measures - in the face of a conflict situation - which must first be the best interests of the child, as well as making the children themselves known. and adolescents, their parents or representatives, the content of the Code that protects them and the scope of the concepts on which it is inspired, so that they can enjoy and exercise their rights. For this reason, this manual is intended to be a guide that guides didactically anyone who wants to know and disseminate the code.

Review:
Boys and girls in Peru constitute the majority of the national population living in especially critical circumstances. Recognizing your rights and serving them comprehensively with a permanent and sustained effort by the State and society are imperatives of the current time.
The Peruvian State approved on August 3, 1990 through Legislative Decree 25278 the convention on the Rights of the Child and promised to adapt national legislation to these norms that have since acquired constitutional hierarchy and are mandatory.
The Code of Minors promulgated on May 2, 1962, due to the passage of time and the changes that have occurred in our country, has become practically obsolete. Thus, various commissions reviewed this Code and proposed important projects for its reform, however, these projects did not consider the critical reality of Peruvian childhood, nor the norms of the Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Latin American doctrinal trends that support the new codes for children like those of our neighboring countries of Brazil, Colombia and Ecuador.
The Technical Commission author of this ante - Project made up of outstanding professionals, has devoted 90 days special attention to these new and demanding challenges of reality and the current legal framework.
In this Preliminary Draft of the Code, bold and creative proposals are introduced from its name, since it is about understanding all the children of the country and not only the minor offenders of the criminal law.
The ante - Draft Code is made up of a Preliminary Title, Four Books, 263 Articles, eight transitory provisions and three final provisions. Each one of its norms is dedicated to guaranteeing the existence of the mechanisms of defense of life and the rights of children developed in the Preliminary Title and the First Book. In the second Book, the existence of a National System of Comprehensive Child Care has been proposed to unite public and private efforts in favor of Peruvian children. The following Book has considered convenient to develop the rules related to the treatment of the main family institutions related to children. Among these are the rules on adoptions aimed at providing abandoned children with a family.And the fourth Book deals with the administration of justice specialized in children, which has been reinforced with the creation of the Family Rooms. The authorities in charge of hearing and administering justice in delicate matters related to children will be the judges and prosecutors of children. Along with them, it will be the public defenders and attorneys who will assume the defense of children and the auxiliary bodies that will be in charge of supporting the work of the administration of justice.Along with them, it will be the public defenders and attorneys who will assume the defense of children and the auxiliary bodies that will be in charge of supporting the work of the administration of justice.Along with them, it will be the public defenders and attorneys who will assume the defense of children and the auxiliary bodies that will be in charge of supporting the work of the administration of justice.

This 1992 Code needs to be fine-tuned by law scholars who are called to make observations and propose alternatives and solutions.

Bibliography
Codes, Statutes and Organic Law of the Judiciary.
Review: On June 28, 1993, the Children and Adolescents Code came into force, having been published in the first Official Edition in 1994.
In March 1996, the new Official Edition containing the Reason Exhibition was published. The Code has been modified by 6 Laws and an “Administrative Resolution”..
In this Edition, the Code has been updated and Laws 26324 have been indicated, which added the Transitory Provision and modified articles of the Code; Law 26447, which prescribed that the Terrorism Offenses set forth in DL 25475 are the competence of the Specialized Judge of Children and Adolescents; Law 26497 that establishes the Organic Law of Identification and Civil Status; Law 26518 referring to the National System of Comprehensive Care for Children and Adolescents, Law 26596 that modifies the composition of the Board of the Governing Body, as well as lower hierarchy provisions, which in some way affect the Code, such as an Administrative Resolution that converts in Family Courts to those of Children and Adolescents.
The author agrees with the doctrine of Comprehensive Protection and also with that of the Irregular Situation, both aim to protect the child according to his interest; however, the first one in practice we can affirm, as Emilio García Méndez points out, it failed in its application and spread inequality between “pseudo-protected” minors and antisocial minors; the second that makes the child the subject of rights, but hopefully it will become a reality to prevent the existence of hungry children, beggar children, working children, delinquent children.

Review: It was prepared by Ecuadorian lawyers who are experts in various legal matters, and received contributions from the National Congress, the National Institute for Children and Families - INNFA, the Ministry of Social Welfare, the Ecuadorian Children's Forum and various municipalities in the country.
This Code strictly collects the constitutional norms and establishes institutional and social conduct mechanisms that guide a collective behavior capable of constituting a just and stable society for all.
According to this norm, children and adolescents are holders of all human rights, in addition to those specific to their age, which operate on the basis of the principles of indivisibility and non-hierarchy, the enforceability of these rights in such a way that they are directly applicable. and invoked before any judge or authority, the enumeration of the aforementioned rights does not exclude others that are necessary for the full moral and material development of the child and adolescent, and that derive from their condition of person, the differences between childhood and adolescence and, therefore, the possibility of progressive exercise of rights.
In what it says related to ages, the Childhood and Adolescence Code puts an end to the old civilist nomenclature that differentiates between adults and minors, puberty and puberty (with differentiation between men and women in this matter), the same as It is included in the current retail legislation.
The new treatment emphasizes the condition of person and distinguishes, therefore, between people who have not reached the age of 18 and those who have reached the age of 18, and in the case of the former, distinguishes between children and adolescents, fixing the dividing line on age 12 years old, common for both sexes. For the latter, the absence of serious foundations that justify maintaining the different ages of 12 and 14 years that still mark the legal transition of women and men from impuberty to puberty has been taken into account.
The dissemination and application of the Childhood and Adolescence Code is a commitment that we have responsibly assumed the Ministry of Social Welfare, the Association of Ecuadorian Municipalities - AME, the National Institute of Children and the Family - INNFA, the Ecuadorian Forum for Children and Adolescence, Our Children Program of the Ministry of Social Welfare; and non-governmental organizations, popular and social organizations.
On July 3, 2003, this Code came into force and in order to reach the largest possible number of national and local authorities, professionals, technicians, parents and the general public, this legal body has been printed.

Review: With this Law it is desired to grant a consistent legal support to the new national commitments for this population group. Under the concept of Investment in Human Capital, which allows hierarchical actions and plans aimed at the Protection of Children and Adolescents of Venezuela, as the only way to eradicate in the medium term the intolerable disparities and social injustices that have been accumulating and reproducing in our country in the last decades, the LOPNA consolidates the public space not only for comprehensive protection, but also for the leading and controlling participation of our children and youth population in the decisions that directly involve them.
In this Law, the thematic approaches of the Approving Law of the International Convention on the Rights of the Child are retaken, adopting it to the current Venezuelan situation, with which the philosophical contents of both legal instruments are integrated, in order to comply with the commitments national and international and achieve the common goal of a sustained state of physical, moral, psychological and spiritual well-being for Children and Adolescents. This conviction is framed by the unrestricted willingness of the Vice Ministry of Social Development to give technical and financial impetus to all plans, projects and social programs aimed at Children and Adolescents.

Review: The Children's Code in force at that time, was the 1932, important for the time, with a great medical content and with a clear vision for those abandoned and orphaned boys and girls; that is, for a certain class of minors. This legal instrument stipulated that children and adolescents were objects of protection and charity: taxable persons without their primary status as independent persons.
On February 6, 1998 (61 years later), with a renewed conception of the universe of children and adolescents (through Law 7739), the Childhood and Adolescence Code is dictated, the result of current needs. This legislation comes directly from the commitments made by ratifying the convention. It is inspired, in addition to our national values, adapted to national needs, in addition to defining administrative and judicial powers, using the principles of the best interests of the minor. Thus, it uses the preferential norm and indicates that this is the minimum legal framework for the comprehensive protection of the rights of minors.
This Code marks the limit of a path traveled, the fulfillment of the legislative adaptation with different laws for this population that represents 42% of the national population. We have an updated legal framework that we can continue to build. Today, the State, public and private institutions, and the elderly have the necessary tools to "defend, restore, guarantee, and denounce the rights of minors and make them effective", so that they do not remain alone in the registry. written.

Review:
- “Social vision of the New Code for Minors”
The task of formulating a new Code for Minors has been tortuous and contradictory as various instances of society have participated, with the difficulties but also with the commitments that this contracts; However, we must reiterate that the implementation of this legal body is still a task full of greater difficulties, above all, with the aforementioned tradition that "laws abide but are not followed."
… Some points of view regarding the social vision of the New Code for Minors. Naturally, giving a social vision, that is, what is the social content of this new provision, implies first of all locating ourselves in the national situation with respect to the character and status of social policies in general and particularly with respect to oriented social policies. to children in Bolivia.

Review: Decree No. 78 - 79 of the Congress of the Republic, the Juvenile Code, has stopped responding to the needs of legal regulation in matters of children and youth and that a profound transformation of the law is necessary to provide the different organs of the state and society as a whole of a legal body that adequately guides the behavior and actions in favor of such an important social sector, as established by the constitution and international conventions on human rights signed by Guatemala.
In accordance with internationally recognized principles, freedom, justice and peace in the world are based on the recognition of the dignity and rights of all family members.
Our country signed on January 26, 1990 the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which was approved by the Congress of the Republic on May 190 of the same year and that said international instrument proclaims the need to educate children in a spirit of peace, dignity, tolerance, freedom, equality and solidarity, in addition to conceiving children and youth as full subjects of social, economic and cultural rights who should be allowed to be protagonists of their own development in a framework of solidarity, to strengthening the rule of law, social justice, peace and democracy.

Note: Some CONA articles adorned with children's drawings, photographs and phrases alluding to the subject are mentioned.
Review: It is the creation of this space, which is made up of small wooden houses that symbolize the environment in which these children live. Each of them are progressively adorned with drawings, words and photographs that emerged through children's communication workshops held in different places where children affected by the recent natural disaster are found. It is also a proposal for progressive and collective interpretation of the expression of children and adolescents. What does it mean to communicate with children? Because it is necessary? Who are the actors in this communication, in the family, and in the community? What does childhood say? Could it be that children could offer a valuable perspective on the future of Nicaragua?
It is all known that boys and girls are the most affected by Hurricane Mitch, an affection that is more visible in them due to being one of the most vulnerable groups. What they witnessed and felt during this moment, can generate important physical and psychological consequences if they are not provided with a timely psychosocial and affective rehabilitation. The “Childhood and Adolescence Code” strengthens the socio-legal space to undertake the important task of its rehabilitation. In its articles, the code guides the need to give priority to the families of our affected boys and girls and to provide them with the opportunity to enjoy health, both physical and mental, as well as to be heard in their opinions, ideas and needs.

Review: In Colombia we have our own legal instrument to defend the rights of boys and girls, in close relationship with the International Convention, which establishes fundamental rights and general principles, in which the protection of children must prevail.
The Minor's Code was expedited in November 1989, according to Decree 2737, constituting one of the great advances in favor of Colombian children. It defines the fundamental rights of boys and girls, determines the principles that govern the norms for their protection, the irregular, difficult situations or the norms for their protection, the irregular, difficult or dangerous situations in which they can meet to protect them, taking into account the social characteristics of the country and the unfortunate widespread mistreatment of our childhood.
