MIDIS 4th Social Inclusion Week: Lorena Alcázar discussed The Lancet proposals for early childhood public policies
Our senior researcher, Lorena Alcázar, shared the main messages of The Lancet proposals for early childhood public policies discussed at the VI Social Inclusion Week (15-19 October), held by the Ministry of Development and Social Inclusion (MIDIS): “A message is the relevance of investing in the early years of children, showing the cost of the effects of this group not achieving adequate development during those years. The other message is, in addition to the health and nutrition issues that were already on the agenda despite the challenges ahead, the need for a strong intersectorality, which is always a weakness for governments”.
