2024 Early Childhood Review
Manage episode 430831001 series 2915031
Over 2,7 million children are living below the food poverty line and more children cannot meet their basic nutritional needs in urban areas. This finding is part of a new report on early childhood in South Africa. Further, this study has revealed that more children are more likely to live in poverty, at a higher risk of malnutrition and some lose their lives before turning 5 years old. This compared to the status of children before the COVID-19 pandemic.
This study reviews the essential components of early childhood service delivery progress across five domains: Nutrition, Maternal & Child Health, Early Learning, Income & Social Support & Primary Caregivers. The Review includes data and commentary on over 50 carefully selected indicators on the status of children under six. The review is a partnership between government departments, civil society and data experts.
Guest: Dr. Katherine Hall - Senior Researcher at the Child Institute at the University of Cape Town
Guest: Zaheera Mohamed - Chief Executive Officer of Ilifa Labantwana
