The Early Years Child Well - Being And The Role Of Public Policy

Child well-being matters for both ethical and economic reasons as children who flourish in the early years are more likely to become healthy, productive citizens later in life. This year’s edition of Development in the Americas (DIA) focuses on the well-being of children from conception to 8 years of age and makes the case for public intervention in improving child outcomes. The process of child development—physical, communicational, cognitive, and socio-emotional— does not unfold on its own, but is shaped by the experiences children accumulate at home, in daycare centers, and at school. Parents, relatives, other caregivers, teachers, and government all have a hand in shaping those experiences. This book offers suggestions for public policy to improve those experiences in ways that would certainly shape children’s lives and the face of the societies they live in for years to come.

儿童福祉鉴于伦理与经济两方面的考量均至关重要，因为那些在早年时期蓬勃发展的儿童更有可能在日后成为健康、高效的公民。本年度的《美洲发展》（DIA）版块专注于从受孕至8岁儿童的福祉，并论证了公共干预在提升儿童成果方面的必要性。儿童发展的过程——包括生理、沟通、认知以及社会情感等方面——并非自发演进，而是受到儿童在家庭、日托中心和学校等场所积累的经历所塑造。父母、亲属、其他照料者、教师以及政府均在塑造这些经历中扮演着角色。本书提供了改进这些经历的建议，以期为儿童的生活及其所在社会的未来数年塑造面貌。
