Abstract:
This article has been prepared from Early Childhood Development as an
International Policy Issue: Summary Report 1 produced by Cassie Landers for Ready to Learn: The International Center on Care and Education of Children at the Academy for Educational Development (AED). The report is about an informal information exchange that AED organised in November 1998 for United States and international experts on the care and development of young children. Among those attending were
representatives from multilateral donors, and implementing and technical agencies. This article consists of a selection of presentations from the day. It shows the priorities and strategies of some of the agencies, and the sorts of issues that are significant to them as they focus on being effective decision and policy makers.
