Global Children's Initiative

The Children's Global Initiative which was founded in 2006, seeks to: reframe the discourse around child health and development, supporting innovative, multi-disciplinary research and demonstration projects and building leadership capacity in child development research and policy. (http://developingchild.harvard.edu/initiatives/global_initiative/. Through its global work, the Children's Global Initiative provides children and their families with assistance that focuses on children's health, learning, development and behaviors.

One aspect of the Children's Global Initiative that I found interesting is that in Brazil, the premier of the Nucleo Ciencia Pela Infancia which is established to help children of the early childhood age and their families by investing more in children and strengthening policies. By collaborating with five different early childhood entities. The goal of this program is to foster a more prosperous, sustainable and equitable society (http://developingchild.harvard.edu/activities/global_initiative/applying_the_science_of_early_childhood_in_brazi/
