We know how important collective action is to achieve sustainable change for babies, toddlers, and their caregivers.
So, we partnered with RAND Europe to document advocacy efforts that have brought about early childhood policy and legislative changes at scale. The findings contribute to the growing knowledge around what works (and what does not) in successfully advocating for the early years.
Check out this lessons map for a matrix describing common themes and elements across all five cases for achieving impact at scale, despite different contexts.
