30.05.2005 Na osnovu rada u porodicama i na osnovu rezultata radionica sa roditeljima, Inicijativa strucnjaka za pomoc ometenoj deci VelikiMali ocenila je da je informisanost o postojećim ustanovama, udruženjima, savezima, pravnim regulativama nešto što su naveli da im je nedostajalo u prvim godinama suočavanja sa "tim" što se dešava njihovom detetu, obzirom da je to bilo nešto što su i sami potiskivali da prihvate. Prvo izdanje pravnog vodiča - "Vodič za roditelje ometene dece kroz oblasti prava, socijalne i zdravstvene zaštite, obrazovanja i brige o deci" objavljeno je 2002. u sklopu projekta "Ispitivanje položaja dece sa posebnim potrebama u opštini Pančevo".

Global March e lavoro minorile - da Mani Tese
25.05.2005 A poco piů di un anno dal Children's World Congress on Child Labour di Firenze, il 28 e 29 maggio l’organizzazione Mani Tese lancia la mobilitazione nazionale Global March per il 2005 che non poteva dimenticare gli Obbiettivi del Millennio (MDGs) e gli appuntamenti internazionali che verranno dedicati alla verifica di questi impegni. Come si puň pensare di raggiungere gli MDGs se nel mondo ci sono 246 milioni di minori sfruttati? Per questo Mani Tese lancia una petizione per chiedere che l'eliminazione dello sfruttamento dell'infanzia e l'istruzione universale diventino prioritarie nella strategia di lotta alla povertŕ. “Parlare di lotta allo sfruttamento dell'infanzia vuol dire spezzare necessariamente il circolo vizioso povertŕ - sfruttamento - analfabetismo e ancora povertŕ” viene precisato dai promotori della petizione.
