Description Handbook of Early Childhood Development Research and Its Impact on Global Policy Author: Pia Rebello Britto, Patrice L. Engle, Charles M. Super Paperback: 560 pages Publisher: Oxford University Press; 1 edition (January 15, 2013) Language: English ISBN-10: 0199922993 ISBN-13: 978-0199922994 Format: PDF  Summary: Early childhood development research offers solutions to several of the world's social and economic problems - solutions that can break the cycle of intergenerational poverty, improve the health, education, and wellbeing of the global population, and yield high rates of return on investment in the formative years of life. And yet over one-third of children worldwide under five years of age still fail to achieve their full developmental potential due to malnutrition, poverty, disease, neglect, and lack of learning opportunities. Handbook of Early Childhood Development Research and Its Impact on Global Policy calls for placing early childhood development at the top of the global policy agenda, enabling children to achieve their full developmental potential and to contribute to equitable economic and social progress worldwide. The volume presents evidence-based programs and policies for advancing the positive development of young children across the globe, focusing on developing countries. An international ensemble of scholars, policymakers, and practitioners present evidence from multiple disciplinary, sectorial, and analytical perspectives, emphasizing the importance of scientific findings in promoting child development and addressing programmatic challenges to quality, sustainability, measurement, finance, and capacity. Sponsored by the Society for Research in Child Development (S.R.C.D.), the premier international association of developmental scientists, and the United Nations Children's Fund (U.N.I.C.E.F.), a leading organization for promoting children's wellbeing worldwide, this Handbook will be invaluable to policy advocates, program managers of national governments, international N.G.O.s, and development agencies, as well as to scholars and students in the areas of child development and global policy.
