24. Child care has been one of the most immediate priorities of Nicaragua's Government, people and revolution, since 19 July 1979. Article 76 of the Constitution establishes that ... "The State shall set up programmes and develop special centres for minors who have the right to any measures of prevention, protection and education they require from their family, society and the State". 25. By virtue of the foregoing, the Nicaraguan Social Security and Welfare Institute, through the Office for the Protection of Minors, has sponsored nationwide action and services which, in addition to dealing comprehensively with the needs of minors, make it easier to include the parents in the country's production process and foster activities to make the family aware of its social responsibility towards the children. 26. The following have been the main developments in the protection of children in Nicaragua: (a) The reform of the Children's Protection Act and its Regulations and the redrafting of the Adoption Act (1979-1981); (b) The entry into operation of urban and rural protection centres; (c) Work with juvenile workers under the Quincho Barrilete Campaign, in conjunction with the National Literacy Crusade, to deal with children's educational and social problems (1980-1982); (d) The establishment and operation of children's rehabilitation centres, including care for adolescents forcibly inducted into the military units of the National Guard (1979-1981); (e) The organization and development of children's canteens in rural areas, for the purpose of reducing the malnutrition of children in settlements for persons displaced by the war (1982-1985); (f) Encouragement of research work on various problems suffered by children (minors at risk, care for psycho-social cases, child abuse, war orphans, etc.) (1982-1985); (g) Direct work with the community through "community teams", which have engaged in preventive activities with the help of the people (1982-1983).E/1986/3/Add.l5 page 5
