| description |
This study qualitatively explores early
stimulation practices in Katavi region, Tanzania. It also
quantitatively investigates the links between these early
stimulation practices and development of children 0-3 years
of age in the Katavi region. A comparative qualitative case
study was carried out in Zanzibar region and findings have
been presented throughout discussion section of this report,
in parallel to the case of Katavi. Through this work the
research team has developed a robust package of early
childhood development research tools that have been
carefully adapted and tested for use in Tanzania. The study
uses and validates the combined use of tools to measure
children's development (the CREDI tool) and the home
environment (the HOME tool) for the first time in Tanzania.
This package includes a complete survey including
culturally-adapted, Kiswahili versions of the CREDI and HOME
tools plus a caregiver information form that have all been
digitized for data collection using electronic tablets.
There is an accompanying video that guides users through the
digitized version of the tool. The package also includes a
four-day training guide with power points that may be used
to prepare enumerators to collect the survey data. The
adapted versions of these tools are free to users and easily
accessible for others who wish to explore early stimulation
and child development in Tanzania. |
