Abstract:
Editorial from the edition of Early Childhood Matters that is devoted
to the Foundation’s issue area ‘Strengthening the care environment’. Strengthening the care environment is about giving every child the chance to survive and thrive. As so often, the case for acting on behalf
of disadvantaged young children can be based on both rights – as enshrined in the Convention on the Rights of the Child (crc), which recognises a child’s right to “full and harmonious development”, along with General Comment 7 (gc7) of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child – and pragmatism.
