Following the process of monitoring the observance of children's rights in street situations, the following problems were identified:  Insufficiency of qualified and experienced specialists in the field of child protection who lead a street way of life;  Difficulties in applying case management;  Delayed intervention of specialists and omission of the prevention stage;  Lack of a clear intervention mechanism at the child's location;  Poor collaboration of all actors, parts of the Intersectoral Cooperation Mechanism for the identification, assessment, referral, assistance and monitoring of child victims and potential victims of violence, neglect, exploitation and trafficking;  Defective collaboration of the guardianship authorities in the country in the context of the child's return to the locality of residence;  Weak interventions of the guardianship authorities in the process of providing the necessary support to the child and the family / family environment for reintegration. The People's Advocate for Children's Rights encourages the authorities to take a holistic approach focused on the best interests of the child and the consultation of the child's opinion. Public authorities must regard children, not only as objects of protection, but also as an active actor in the process of implementing their rights. The responsible persons must decide together with the children the form of protection that will be agreed by them. In the context of this situation, the People's Advocate for Children's Rights presents the following RECOMMENDATIONS:  The Ministry of Health, Labour and Social Protection is to initiate the procedure for amending the legislation on maintaining relations with both parents in case of their separation, on the segment of “schedules of meetings between children and parents”;  The Ministry of Health, Labour and Social Protection must assess the observance of the rights of deinstitutionalized children and the child protection system in the postdeinstitutionalization period;  The Ministry of Health, Labour and Social Protection is to take action in order to optimize the system of deinstitutionalization of children from residential centers; 102
