Potential and perils of the early years: The need to integrate violence prevention and early child development (ECD +)
In recent years, a growing number of studies have documented the prevalence of violence against children as well as its consequences. Across every country and cultural context in which research have been conducted, studies have consistently shown that exposure to violence negatively impacts the heal...

Across every country and cultural context in which research have been conducted, studies have consistently shown that exposure to violence negatively impacts the health and well-being of children, and hampers their development. Many actors have worked to implement programs aimed at addressing this problem, and some, in particular parenting programs, have shown promise as a means of effectively reducing child maltreatment. It is essential, however, to take an integrated approach in settings where fundamental concerns exist over the provisioning of basic health and nutritional needs as well as adequate stimulation. The childs experiences during these early years are critical for their future developmental trajectory and life course. Additional program components, generally implemented as part of early child development programs, are indispensable for ensuring the healthy development of the child. This position paper takes a global perspective in summarizing the key literature and approaches from both violence prevention and early child development, outlines common objectives shared by the two fields, and demonstrates the urgent necessity for holistic cooperation across the two fields. It concludes by suggesting approaches and priorities for better integration to ensure that all children can reach their full potential. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
