 Although the Intersectoral Strategy for the development of parenting skills and competences has a deadline for execution in 2020, the National Action Plan for the implementation of this Strategy developed for 2018-2020 has not been adopted so far. Although, according to the statistical data presented by the National Social Insurance House, the amount of the single childbirth allowance increased from 6303 MDL to 8299 MDL for every child born alive, 140 however, a serious problem analyzed by the Children's Ombudsman in this regard is represented by the monthly allowance granted for the uninsured persons, which currently constitutes the amount of 640 MDL / per month141. Another parallel in ensuring the right to life, on the protection segment of future generations, examined by the People's Advocate for Children's Rights, was the situation regarding the conditions in which women in the Republic of Moldova give birth. From the information gathered, it is found that there are currently 34 maternity hospitals in the country. However, although the number of maternity hospitals is high, 60% of all women who have to give birth go to only 4 of these maternity hospitals, and the remaining 40% - in the remaining 30. According to specialists in the field, 70% of women who gave birth in these 30 maternity hospitals and children born had to suffer various complications up to cases resulting in death, due to poor endowment of these units or due to lack of specialists at work.142. The situation is also alarming from the perspective of ensuring the child's right to life from the first moments of his birth.
