This book is open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 3.0 IGO license. The
Early Years analyzes the development of Latin American and
Caribbean children and makes a compelling case for government
intervention in what is instinctively a family affair. Spending on
effective programs for young children is an investment that, if
done well, will have very high returns, while failure to implement
such programs will lower the returns on the hefty investments being
made in primary, secondary, and higher education. Policies for
young children belong at the core of a country's development
agenda, alongside policies to develop infrastructure and strengthen
institutions. However, if the services provided (or funded) by
governments are to benefit children, they must be substantially
better than what is currently being delivered in the region. This
book offers suggestions for improving public policy in this
critical area.
