Aimed to understand the actions, struggles, strategies and challenges of the movement to defend the rights of children and adolescents in the Espírito Santo and its relation to the process of participation since the beginning of the 1980s to the current period. To that end, there were observation from various places of political participation and activism, such as Forum for Protection of the Rights of Children and Adolescents, the State Board of Protection of the Rights of Children and Adolescents, Movement of Street Boys and Girls of the Espírito Santo. And also semi-structured and open interviews with prominent actors and activists of the movement defending the rights of the Child and Adolescent . This movements strengthened over the 1980s, in the context of politics re reopening of the country, denouncing, exerting pressure and demand of the state investigation of crimes and abuses committed against the public and also the implementation of public policies. As a result, there was the production and promulgation of ECRIAD, passing legislation to recognize that children and adolescents as subjects of rights and that directs the actions of state policies and guidelines for the ethical and political doctrine of Full Protection. During the 1990s, there were many changes in society. There was a process of deepening economic relations and neoliberal policies, with negative impacts on the promotion of political rights defenders and promoters of, concurrently the achievements of several civil rights, political, economic, social and cultural rights, the legal environment, with the approval of the Federal Constitution of 1988 and ECRIAD. These changes have influenced the strategies to combat the movement of defending the rights of children and adolescents. They act in different deliberative spaces, and are also called to execute policies and projects of the state, participating in public management. Their actions are more focused on the management of scarce resources and insufficient policies currently promoted by State. If these changes in the political participation of the movements of defense are meaningless, on the one hand, conquest of space, political influence and democratization of public policies on the other seems to have cooled actions of political struggle and pressing the government and the own channels to participate in refers to the promotion and protection of rights and accusations of violations when incurred. In a manner that even the activists ask itself about its role in the current juncture, show some anxieties about the direction of movement of defense and its effectiveness in the new context macropolitical, and have some clarity on both the difficulties and challenges to the use of instruments of participation in its potential, as on the insufficient and occasional help of a large part of policies and projects that run. Its necessary that the conquer of implementation of policies do not replace the actions linked to pressing and call for the promotion and protection of rights by the state, but that the two fronts of action should be articulated complement. if this integration failed, it will be easier to occur reductionism of social participation to simple management of scarce resources at the expense of technical juggling and assumption of guilty by the inadequacy of intent for the promotion and protection of rights
