Participants explored existing, new, and innovative science and research from around the world to translate this evidence into sound and strategic investments in policies and practices that will make a difference in the lives of children and their caregivers. This report discusses intersections across health, education, nutrition, living conditions, and social protection and how investments of economic, natural, social, and other resources can sustain or promote early childhood development and well-being."--Publisher's description.Child welfareCongressesChild welfare362.7Bogard KimberMellody MaureenInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).Board on Global Health,Investing in Young Children Globally: the Cost of Inaction (Workshop)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910820138403321The cost of inaction for young children globally3934518UNINA
