The topic of the second webinar in this UNICEF/RISE Institute series was SDG monitoring and reporting (roles and responsibilities, requirements for global monitoring and reporting, etc.), monitoring ECD within the SDG measurement framework, and collecting data on ECD through household surveys.

The World Health Organization (WHO), The BMJ, Partnership for Maternal, Newborn & Child Health (PMNCH) and Children in All Policies 2030 (CAP2030) hosted this webinar series on health professionals and formula milk marketing. Webinar 2 in the series looked at the question: Should health professional associations refuse industry funding?

As part of a series of side events at the UN General Assembly, UNICEF co-hosted this high-level spotlight event with Sesame Workshop to galvanize global investment in parenting support and early childhood development (ECD) programmes, especially in areas affected by conflict and crisis.

The first five years of life are the fastest period of growth and development. This webinar covered the early life of participants in South Africa’s Birth-to-30 cohort study, including their home environment, their early learning and the factors that influenced their development.

This first webinar in a series of three introduced the series, co-hosted by The Rise Institute and UNICEF, and looked at data needs for early childhood development and matching such needs to available data sources, measures and systems.

Maternal and child health and nutrition play crucial roles in child development. This webinar showcased the extraordinary findings from South Africa’s Birth to 30 (Bt30) cohort, which has helped researchers understand physical growth, body composition, maturation, and the many factors that contribute to these biological processes.

This webinar, the first in a series on health professionals and formula milk marketing, was brought to you by the World Health Organization (WHO), The BMJ, the Partnership for Maternal, Newborn & Child Health (PMNCH) and Children in All Policies 2030 (CAP2030).

This was the first in a series of global webinars on ECD and climate change from the Early Childhood Regional Networks – AfECN, ANECD, ARNEC and ISSA and Global Early Childhood Network ECDAN.

This ARNEC conference aimed to bring about strong awareness among policy makers and practitioners of the substantial threats young children are facing due to the multiple crises that are affecting them, i.e., COVID-19, climate change and environmental degradation.

This virtual regional conference aimed to develop a common understanding of evidence-based solutions and further commitment towards supporting parents and caregivers of children and adolescents.
