ECCD GROUP
Description
The Consultative Group on Early Childhood Care and Development, is a diverse consortium of agencies, donors, NGOs and foundations that links with regional-based Early Childhood Care and Development networks comprising individuals and organisations involved in programming, research, policy-advocacy, monitoring and evaluation for young children (0-8) at risk in the Majority World. The term Majority World refers to those countries that are often referred to as South countries, developing or third world countries and serves to remind us that the majority of the world' s children are at risk of delayed or debilitated development.
The Secretariat – in partnership with the other members of the consortium and regional networks – works actively to identify gaps, critical issues and emerging areas of need and interest related to ECCD for its work in awareness-raising, advocacy, and dissemination, and to seek out new partners.
Strengthen and/or establish more effective links with others working in health, social welfare, community development, adult literacy and basic education.
