Summary of the Meeting, Lisbon, March 26, 2004.

The texts that make up the “Cadernos da Actividade Lúdica” collection allow the dissemination of contributions from participants who have enriched, with their intervention, conferences, round tables, meetings and other events on games, toys, toy libraries and outdoor play spaces, organized by the sector of the IAC Playful Activity. This volume includes five texts by Graça Guedes, João Amado, José Veiga, Manuela Hasse and Jorge Crespo.

This report provides a global survey of child protection and education services in Portugal and their evolution, as well as other measures that contribute to equal opportunities for women in employment and leisure.

In the study and investigation presented in this book, we intend to analyse the problem of street children in the city of Lisbon, using the intervention methodology developed by IAC – Projecto Rua over the last 25 years. Click to buy.

This work, with a foreword by Maria de Belém Roseira and a preface by Dulce Rocha, aims to inform Parents, Health Professionals, Teachers and the general public about the instruments that protect children in the health area in Portugal. The six chapters present the laws and other legal provisions that, in relation to the Child, illustrate the Right to Health and Access to Health Services, Protection of Maternity, Paternity and Adoption, School Health, Child Victims of Abuse, Adolescents and Children and Young People with Disabilities.

The IAC, aware of the need for parental education, the absence of valid instruments for this purpose, and that this work constitutes an important support for those who deliver training to populations, promoted the publication of this book. It is therefore, as noted on the cover, a “recommended reading for parents’ schools”. It is also worth noting that the texts are scripts for the daily television episodes entitled “Manuel e Beatriz”, which served as a means of transmitting in accessible language information on the defense of children’s rights and many other essential dissemination topics in a country with such great needs in the area of education.
