| description |
Investing in every child at an early age
is an investment in human, and economic development for all.
Children born in poverty are far more likely to grow
undeveloped in both body, and mind. Science tells us that
early child development (ECD) is critical, and marks a child
for life, and, young children who are well nurtured, do
better in school, and develop the skills to compete in a
global economy. It is in this context that the Bank hosted a
conference to review the state of knowledge on brain
development, the link between ECD and human development, the
standards of care to improve children's educational
outcomes, the qualitative and quantitative measures of
effective programs, and elements of quality in ECD programs.
This book contains the proceedings of the Conference on
Investing in our Children's Future, which brought
together leading experts, academicians, and practitioners
from nongovernmental organizations, civil society,
governments, and international organizations. The conference
featured the benefits of investing in young children, and
measuring ECD standards of care, to ensure a fair start for
all based on case studies. It further evaluated the
effectiveness of ECD programs, with presentations focused on
the role of private initiatives in influencing public
policy. Conclusions include the pursuit of a continued
evaluation on the effectiveness of ECD programs, and, a
deliberately planned global coalition to fund ECD initiatives. |
