Early child development and overall children?s developmental trajectories have long-term implications for health, happiness, and earning potential as these children become adults. Importantly, failing to reach developmental potential contributes to global cycles of poverty, inequality, and social exclusion. There is little public understanding of the importance of a child?s first years and the critical developmental opportunity to reach optimal functioning. As such, global data on early child developments are crucial to inform the public and demand evidence-based policies and high-quality programs for children around the world. This book includes initiatives assessing the impact of programs and interventions related to children?s health, education, and participation that inform evidence-based policies worldwide. Importantly, this book raises global awareness of the importance of children?s first years of life and the crucial role of child?environment interactions where the child lives, plays, and grows. The culturally diverse content comprises international representation of studies and classifications tools. International experts contributed high-quality reviews that collate valuable information and guide the adoption of a rights-based approach in early child development globally. 517 $aEarly Child Development 606 $aHumanities$2bicssc 606 $aSocial interaction$2bicssc 610 $achild development 610 $amotor skills 610 $avision disorders 610 $aevaluation 610 $aphysical therapy 610 $aoptometry 610 $acongenital Zika syndrome 610 $auser participation 610 $amobility 610 $aintervention 610 $achild vocabulary 610 $amaternal mental health 610 $aPeru 610 $aroutines 610 $aintervention planning 610 $acollaborative consultation 610 $ainternational 610 $aimplementation 610 $adevelopmental delay 610 $achild health 610 $abirth weight 610 $agrowth measurement 610 $aresponsive caregiving 610 $aparent-child interaction 610 $aobservational measurement 610 $athin slice methodology 610 $alow- and middle-income countries 610 $aBrazil 610 $afunctioning 610 $aoutcomes 610 $aeducation 610 $ameasurement 610 $achild development assessment 610 $aacademic achievement 610 $aeducational attainment 610 $awealth/socioeconomic status 610 $aCOVID-19 610 $aparticipation 610 $aRoutines-Based Model 610 $afamily-centered 610 $achild 610 $apandemic 610 $ateleintervention 610 $aabilities 610 $arights 610 $achildren with cerebral palsy 610 $aagreement 610 $astability 610 $acommunication function classification system 610 $aearly child development 610 $aICF 610 $ahealth 610 $ainequality 610 $apotential 610 $adisability 610 $aabsent learners 610 $abiological mothers 610 $afirst 1000 days 610 $aFoundation phase 610 $aEarly Development Instrument 610 $adevelopmental health 610 $asocial determinants of health 610 $aautism spectrum disorder 610 $ameasure 610 $aassessment 610 $acomplex communication needs 610 $asevere physical disabilities 610 $aeye-gaze controlled computer 610 $acommunicative interaction 610 $aindicators 610 $aglobal health 610 $avalidation 610 $across-cultural 610 $across-linguistic 615 7$aHumanities 615 7$aSocial interaction 700 $aSchiariti$b Vero?nica$4edt$01314020 702 $aSchiariti$b Vero?nica$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557471403321 996 $aEarly Child Development: From Measurement to Optimal Functioning and Evidence-based Policy$93031588 997 $aUNINA
